There's a new rule for non-US citizens travelling to US.

They must give a US adress to get the boarding pass at the Port of Embarkation.

This is a new rule imposed by British Airways.

Doesn't sound too tough as your luggage tag usually has your address. But avoid BA and Heathrow -- the security lines, the silly rules -- all a nightmare.

It's not about getting tough. It's freakin BA rule that I don't like.

Oh Yes, there's a huge line in Heathrow, where even though are just getting off one plane and getting into another you'll need to go thru the security check once again.

In the UK you have to give the address of where you will be staying in the USA, regardless of what airline you use. I think you'll find it's American Immigration who have enforced this, not the airlines.

It's only the British Airlines that wants this information NOT any other airline coming into US.
