The security screening process for checked baggage at the airport is not the same as the security screening process for carry-on baggage.
The carry-on luggage is carried by the guest through the security check, while the checked luggage is sent to a special place for security check through the conveyor belt after the check-in and check-in procedures are completed.
At this time, Ma Lan had no idea what was going to happen next.
After she checked both suitcases, she took her boarding pass and swaggered to the security checkpoint.
And the woman who was watching her nearby, after seeing her checked in and her suitcase being sent away by the conveyor belt, was relieved and immediately stood up and walked out of the airport.
Ma Lan carried her Hermes, leisurely came to the VIP security check channel, and immediately enjoyed the warm service of the staff after showing the first-class boarding pass.
While others were still queuing up for the security check, Ma Lan quickly completed the security check, and then found a nearby first-class lounge to rest.
At the same time, the two suitcases she checked in were queuing up to pass through the security check machines at the airport one by one.
During this process, if no abnormality is found, the passenger will be released directly to the flight. Once any abnormality is found in the luggage, the border inspection personnel of the customs will immediately open the luggage for inspection.
Generally speaking, the contraband that has been carefully hidden are basically well concealed. In addition, the risk of leaving the country is far less than that of entering the country, so this link will be relatively relaxed, and criminals at least have With a 50% chance of winning, you can successfully pass the exit security check.
However, the entry security check after landing will be much stricter, because many countries and regions have strict entry standards, and some countries do not even allow any fresh fruit to be brought in, even if the fruit brought by the passengers on the plane will not be eaten or left over when they land. If an apple is found by the border inspection, a heavy fine will be imposed.
Therefore, the biggest test is actually in the entry link.
In this link, the odds of winning will plummet to only about 30%.
Combined with the 50% in the first stage, the overall pass rate is actually around 15%.
It is precisely because the success rate is very low that the price of this new type of contraband in East Asia is surprisingly high. The price per gram is as high as more than 2,000 US dollars. It is an exclusive product for the super rich.
As long as Ma Lan can successfully land on Hong Kong Island this time and pass the border inspection, the contraband she is carrying will be worth more than ten million US dollars.
At this time, Ma Lan was sitting in the luxurious first-class lounge, drinking coffee while taking pictures and posting a circle of friends.
Her accompanying text was: “I’m about to leave for my home country, but I still feel a little bit reluctant. My friend’s private jet is being maintained by Gulfstream.
After editing the circle of friends, she did not forget to specifically cover Ye Chen, Xiao Churan and Xiao Changkun.
After posting on the Moments, she leisurely sent a video call to Xiao Churan.
At this time, Ye Chen and Xiao Churan had already driven out of New York and started to return to Providence.
Xiao Churan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, connected to the video sent by his mother and asked, “Mom, have you boarded the plane?”
“Not yet.” Ma Lan said with a smile: “I’ll have to wait for a while to board the plane. I’m in the first-class lounge!”
Xiao Churan reminded: “Then you must pay attention to the time. Don’t affect the boarding. The boarding will start half an hour before the departure time. Go early to save yourself from rushing on your way later.”
Ma Lan said disdainfully: “Cut, what are you afraid of, I’m a distinguished first-class passenger, if I don’t get on the plane, he won’t dare to take off if I give him the courage, besides, they will definitely call my name on the radio at that time. , reminding me to board the plane, it’s not too late to leave by then.”
Xiao Churan said helplessly: “Mom, it can be solved in an orderly manner ten or twenty minutes in advance, so why bother others?”
Ma Lan hummed and said, “Silly girl, do you know that we spent this amount of money on the plane ticket? Otherwise, why is our plane ticket several times more expensive than others? It’s all right to cause him trouble.”
