[size=10pt]Landing Experience[/size]
Dear all, sorry for the delay in sharing my landing experience with you. I will make it very short to focus on the important part that you should know.
Well, our flight was Dragon Air and Cathay Pacific that costs us around 72K taka per person from Dhaka to Toronto. We were allowed 2 pcs of luggage each 23 Kg, and one laptop bag and another hand bag upto 5 KG (but they are ok upto 7 to 10 kg, as they allowed me).
Our flight was at 2am on 25 th feb and we reached airport around 11 pm. I was worried about the foreign currency I had with me, what i did was placed the canadian currency along with my other pile of documents. Please be informed that from the money exchange agent you can only endorse upto 1000 usd, and from the banks you can endorse upto 5000 usd. i just endorsed 1K usd and carried the rest of canadian dollars with me. they scanned my luggage and bags in airport and everything was fine. One important thing you should know, the person at the counter take weight of our laptop bag as well which they normally never do (first time in my life it happened). my luggage were each 25kg and i knew they will be ok with it.
we left for Hong Kong which is supposed to be a 4 hour flight but our aircraft reached within 3:30 hour. the hong kong airport has free wifi and you can use it to make calls via Skype, viber, etc. From hong kong we started for Toronto which was approx. 15 hour flight. after arriving to Toronto, you can again use free wifi to make calls right after getting out of the aircraft. At customs, the lady did not even want see our declaration for the goods accompanying, rather she asked for declaration of goods that will follow. ( I followed Qorax's post, that was reposted by Ashif bhai to create the declaration). for jewellery items, it is important take print of the pictures to be very specific with them. within 5mins our customs was done and we are out.
Hope this helps!!! And lets pray for each other so that we all achieve success asap!!!
