International Flight with connection in the destination country. At which airport will I have to pass through customs?
I am an Italian citizien that spent the last 6 months abroad in Japan. I will be returning to Italy next week, and I have booked an Alitalia flight that goes from Tokyo(NRT) to Roma(FCO),I will then wait 2 hours for the connecting flight from FCO to Bologna(BLQ).
Alitalia allows 2 checked-in baggages, that I have basically filled with gifts for various family members and friends. There's really a lot of stuff and it's tightly packed with clothes, if I'm stopped at Roma for customs I will certainly miss the flight to Bologna.
I am trying to decide if it's worth spending some extra money to change the flight from FCO to BLQ to one that departs later, but I want to be sure that I really need to, because the other flight is not cheap.
With this Itinerary, at which airport will I have to pass through customs?
[EDIT] I realized I forgot to specify that the itinerary has been booked as a single ticket.
