United States Airport Security Non Existent

To get to Fiji we first had to fly to Los Angeles. You kind of enter America as soon as you get to border security at Vancouver Airport. The passport officer – a rotund middle aged American who struggled to communicate beyond grunting and pointing and a few well rehearsed sarcastic put downs was a wonderful introduction to US security. We flew to LA, landed then walked out of the domestic terminal and on to the street without any security or passport checks whatsoever – so much for increased security these days. We then had a very nice ten hour flight to Fiji in the upper deck next to emergency exit – loads of leg room.
