Arriving at SFO International Terminal on a domestic flight

As a British Citizen arriving into SFO%26#39;s International Terminal on a domestic Virgin America flight from LAX.

Now i know im going to have to go to the non U.S citizen line at immigration, but will it really only be a formality for me and get pretty much waved through as i will have already cleared immigration and had my passport stamped at LAX a few days earlier.

I wouldn%26#39;t think you%26#39;d have to go through an immigration line again.

Virgin America is just located in the International Terminal. Since you%26#39;re on a domestic flight (LAX-SFO) no one will need to go through immigration.

Cheers for the replys, ive been told by a few people that as a UK passport holder that i would still have to pass through immigration as im arriving at the international terminal even though im arriving on a VX flight from L.A %26amp; would have already been cleared at LAX on my flight from Heathrow.

The leg from LAX to SFO will be considered a domestic flight. You will have cleared customs and immigration in LA. As PP indicated, no one will go through immigration coming off that flight.

Virgin America was given gate in the International terminal as there weren%26#39;t any available in the domestics ones (Jet Blue also flys out of International, yet flights to Canada leave out of domestic ... go figure.)

I asked this same question a couple of weeks ago, and having now arrived back from my trip I can confirm that the first airport you land at in the US (point of entry) you will have to clear immigration.

Then, any internal flights you take you will be treated identically to any other passengers., including US citizens. This means walking off the plane, straight to baggage reclaim and out the door, without any ID or immigration checks.

Thanks again for the replys, i thought it sounded a little odd that i would need to clear immigration again having already done so at LAX, but like i said a couple of people i know where insistent i would need too.
