    09/2012 - Tourist Card Online

    I got this link to avoid having to wait in line in the DR to pay the $10.00 fee. I pre pay and print it off and it saves time in lines. Since everything in the DR is so slow this helps. Santo Domingo airport is real slow that line is usually 30 minutes...

    To save you a few minutes in line here is the link to buy the tourist card over the web:

    I'm I the only one who enjoys seeing someone stand in line for like 30 minutes only to watch them get sent back to get the $10 tourist card and stand in line all over again at SDQ???

    I get a perverse enjoyment watching the Canadian tourists when I fly down on Westjet. The flight attendants hand out the tourists cards on the plane and make a big announcement telling everyone to store them carefully as they will be needed when they leave the country. They get very concerned when an official takes it away from them 5 minutes after entering the airport!!!

    Re: Tourist Card Online

    I'm missing something.... Perhaps cause I've only flown in to POP. At POP you still have to wait in line to get to the dude who is taking your tourist card in the first place. Thats the only line that I've ever encountered a significant waiting game with. I'm purchasing the tourist card (takes like 10 secs for me, I only see people being held up who don't have exact change) while I'm literaly already waiting in line to get past their customs.

    Did something go over my head? don't see how this speeds up the process in any significant matter to be honest. Nice concept though.

    The real fast way to skip the lines is being the first off that plane

    That is VERY TRUE.

    Have not flown to POP in a while, but from what I recall you CAN get stuck behind a whole PLANE full of AI tourists, who all jam up the line, faast, so it is possible to have to wait like 30 mins.. seems hard to believe but its true.. Some of these AI people dont even know why they are waiting in line,much less do they have exact change ready..

    Want to avoid the Card line,, fly to STI...
    get off the plane fast, Down the escalator, SHARP LEFT.... guess what , you the first one in the line, almost every single time..there is NEVER a line. You can even then make a run for the roped line to immigration and be one of the first 10 people.. seems only one plane at a time lands at STI, esp if its early AM, or I could be just lucky last 6x in a row.

    In POP it seems like there is always a long line to pay for the tourist card. If I buy the card on line can I then just skip that line, sneak under the rope and go to the guy taking the card? Is this correct??

    Re: Tourist Card Online

    If you buy the card online then you go directly to the guy that collects the tourist card and off to customs.

    At SDQ that guy or gyal is at the end of the line for DR immigrations. You go through them and to immigration 1st and then to the carousel for your bag and then to customs after hitting the Duty Free and the Brugal and Barcelo kiosks. That little Cuba Libre before customs is a nice touch. I'm glad they're still doing that.

    Re: Tourist Card Online

    Its very difficult to do because there are no gaps in the line between the tourist card station and where they actually take the card. Remember also they only have a select amount of stations at their customs desk which is where the guy taking your tourist card will direct you; so you are forced to wait to get to the customs desk regardless.

    That kinda makes that tourist card line at POP somewhat of an illusion. Everybody is in line anyways to get past customs. If recall correctly, there are two lines. One to the right for residents and one to the left for tourists. Where you purchase the tourist card is to the left, stationed by where they give you the free shot of brugal. This is the same line you have to wait in anyhow to get through customs so all you are really doing is picking up the tourist card while you are already in line to get past customs which again you have to wait in line for anyway.

    Not to mention if you try sneaking under the rope you are literaly going to be cutting in front of someone since there are no gaps so they won't be too happy about that

    I just realized why that line never bothers me!!!! The free shot of brugal!!! Someone remind me to take a redbull on board and ask for my shot on the rocks so I can get an early start on my liquid crack!! props to TNT and VP on that one

    Okay, I need to graduate to carry on mode for any of this to be a benefit.

    No matter how long the lines, I have yet to get through to find my bag flying around the carousel. Guess I need "packing 101" again.

    You go to the line that says residents because you don't need to buy the tourist card. Just give it to the guy before the customs booth and you are on your way.
