Back Again: First Impressions

[Gringoboy]

My Iberia flight to Madrid/London last month was so empty, and I mean empty, that we could sprawl all over the place like lounge lizards. What a luxury.
Check in at Eze took less than ten minutes and for a moment, I thought I was the only passenger.
I couldn't help noticing though that the cabin crew or stewardesses as we used to call them, were all ageing grannies from the Basque area of Spain and nowhere near the pinnacle of those Caledonian pin up girls we grew to love.
Check in was interesting at Heathrow with BA as I had paid for an extra suitcase online (USD80 yikes!) and had two as hand luggage, such was my dedication to smuggling.
I was over weight on one case by 3kg shock horror, even though I'd weighed them in the bathroom and the Asian lass, who was heavily pregnant, was charm itself when asking for £40 over weight charge as I gasped at her. Then she said that the flight was overbooked and they were offering one item of hand luggage free of charge to go in the hold, which I agreed to and she waived the 40 quid, telling me to keep it to myself. That's what I like about British Airways and they've even helped me repack stuff like tea bags and chocolate.
Apart from Virgin, BA is the friendliest airline I've flown on.
We all clapped of course on landing and I love that!

I'm curious. Did migraciones at EZE actually ask why you overstayed a 90 day visa? Even if you had an overstay while you were applying for residency how could that be an issue once you received the DNI?

And since you have a DNI I'm surprised they asked you why you lived in Argentina.

Once you have a DNI, what difference could it make?

Good questions, but I didn't ask why. I think Argentina's migraciones were just curious and the US rep may not have been sure what relevance the DNI provided.
