Hello all!

I was told by a friend of mine that the only point of entry for the west coast for imagration reasons is through Portland. I thought any internation airport as long as there is customs and imagration officials there. Just woundering if this is true or perhaps my friend just been miss infomed?

Thanks for the fast response. Is pretty much what I thought. Seattle will be our preferance when our journey gets to that point.

Coming across the Pacific, you are mainly looking at entering at LAX or SFO, Very few trans-Pacific flights go into Portland or Seattle. In fact, the only one into Portland is from Tokyo. Seattle may have one more, but I doubt it.

LAX has the most, but I usually try to fly through SFO because its nicer (both people and airport) and easier to get into the town for time between flights.
