Do this before you buy and pay for your ticket. There are no refunds if you suddenly find yourself on a "No Fly" list! Land of the fee and home of the knave!

Great idea. That way there are no surprises upon landing. How are they going to counter identity thefts here?

Plus don't forget to check for anything terrible like an "illegal" mp3 file on your laptop/iPod, in case DHS confiscates it.

I think confiscating personal computers is incredible invasion of privacy. Welcome to George Orwell's nightmares...

Yeah, it sucks, but this is actually one thing the Americans didn't start. The Aussies have been using the same system for quite some time (and $25 a pop, too). Eventually, we'll all have to give credit reports, DNA samples, etc. just to visit another country.
