I caught the Spirit red-eye flight and missed my connection with 1 & 20 minutes. 3 Spirit flights had arrived so luggage took much time to reach us. It is a poor layout. The departures for Spirit are in the same terminal, but you have to go through rescreening. The customs takes longer than other airports because they ask the same questions that immigration asks, makes people wait in lines like the movies, and if you don't look ahead, you might pick the line in which only one of the two agents are active. Watch for that.

Overall, I go through faster at other airports because immigration asks the questions, customs waives on. FLL doesn't.

Some times Immigration check time trouble immigration person. So many question ask and some doubt then reject your visa. After arrival airport Customs officer also check some passenger luggage. Some time plane is late 1 hours or 2 hours. At that time passenger is lots of troubling.

btw...there are two immigration booths that have stations for two customs agent in each booth. Then there are two roped lines for each booth. If you choose the line in which there is only 1 instead of 2 agents, cross over to the other line. Otherwise it will take you twice as long.

When you exit the plane, you walk along a glassed corridor in which you can see the gates of Spirit Air connecting flights. The other terminals are separate from this terminal, except for Spirit. Don't count on the employee to tell you this valuable information. Instead she will tell you that her airline screwed up by not providing enough layover time. Far be it from her to go to passengers, ask if they know where to go, and help expedite their voyage. It is certainly amazing in the time of high unemployment to see such poor customer service.
