Has anyone noticed any difference in Customs this year? I would hate not to be able to bring back home a couple of Cuban cigars.

Rather than break the law if you don't agree with it, write your lawmakers and perhaps it will be changed soon. I have heard Aruba customs is now more vigilant also about bringing booze on island. I don't smoke but do drink like a fish however I just cant be bothered schleping it around so I'm good to go either way. I'm close friends with a us customs agent and they have many tricks up there sleeves for finding contraband including cuban cigars, not sure if its worth the risk.
