My understanding is that it's increasingly difficult for foreigners

Can't say I found it any more difficult last year than the previous 20+
years.

Mind you, from this year, I believe you have to fill in your landing
details on-line before you fly. The guy at immigration actually made a
point of mentioning this to me.
That sounds a tad awkward for people who don't have internet acces

There are cyber cafes of course, but I wonder ihow well someone without
their own internet access is going to cope with this.


Chances are that someone without internet access will be buying their
airline tickets via a high street travel agent, so perhaps the shop will help them do that?

That makes a certain amount of sense. I haven't been to a travel agent
for quite some time, so I don't know if they have internet access these
days. Last time I was in one they certainly had their own computer
nework, but do they commonly have anything beyond that?


These days they do a lot of their bookings online - not just their own network, but also via the web to contact airlines, hotels, etc.
