On a recent cruise, we were required to have our bags inspected by US Border Control teams who borded the ship and set up a room to do so.
We duly heaved our suitcases down decks and along miles of corridors, only to have them ignored by the personal, who took cursory glances at our passports, which would have to be scanned for us to be on board in the first place, and off they popped.

The difference is auntpoll those on boats don't have ID and claim asylum, and France would refuse to accept them back even if we knew they'd come via France. If those landing on a parachute had no passport and claimed asylum in France and we refused to take them back, i wonder what France would do.
