| Aug 13, 2018 at 6:14 | comment | added | Augustine of Hippo | The default recommendation here is “tell the truth”. It’s not alway practical and sometimes leads to disaster however more often than not the truth works out. Use your judgment but remember immigration officers are trained interrogators. Don’t lie to them if you’re not adept at it. Personally in those situations I prepare two bookings, one for one day and the second for the rest of the duration (I am assuming these are cancellable up to 24 hrs before check in). Once I arrive and clear immigration, I cancel the second reservation (and the first if that is still within the free cancel period) | |
