I believe the interactions of the agents, customs and immigration, reflect and predict the tone and nature of the experience for the traveller/tourist. After viewing these videos, I have simply removed Australia from any future travel plans rather than expose myself to such silly people.

The fines are completely out of whack. The French woman brought a couple bananas to eat while traveling. The Vietnamese woman brought an entire farmer's market. Both were fined the same $220.

I completely agree with you. I understand that Australia must protect their country. There are people who have box after box after box of food and blatantly lie about it. Those people clearly have zero respect for Australia and their people. Those non-declarants should be given more than a $220.00 fine. The fine should be commiserate with the amount of stuff they bring in.

@@TRUMP-ki9vnI think you’re both misunderstanding the law here. The fine is not because they’re bringing food in or the amount, it is simply because they did not *declare* the food upon arrival. If they declare and are bringing in foods that are not allowed, they’ll just be disposed of. The two passengers received the same fine because they committed the same infringement- failure to declare when they had multiple chances to do so.

@@fempilled. We understand very well. I’ve watched mega videos over past several years from Australia 🇦🇺, and trust me many times Agent’s have given only a warning, plus the food amount was huge, and the people purposely tried to sneak it in👉 they got a WARNING. Seriously, those 2 Agents could have had compassion as the woman’s banana 🍌 🍎 chips were small amount given to her on the plane! Other words, she didn’t try to sneak in food period. Too bad she didn’t get the manger and have a private conversation with THE MANGER. I’ve always praised the Australia 🇦🇺 Agents, but not this time.

Those 2 agents probably get medals for all the Money 💰 they collect for Airport!🧐 Also she was on vacation no mention of Moving to Australia 🇦🇺 Millions 💰💰 go into economy of Australia 🇦🇺 by showing compassion to vacationers as many Agents have done just that. 👉 2 🍌🍎and bag of chips which was given on the plane ✈️ ended up costing the woman $220!
