Arriving, coming back from overseas, your first stop is to “enter the country”.
This is where the boarder agent/immigration officials have that vast array of
booths. US citizens get their own lanes, everybody else gets the other lanes.
With GE, you bypass all that crap. You go to a GE kiosk, scan your passport
and go directly to baggage and customs.
Departing, GE lets you get in the short line and when at the x ray machine you
keep your shoes, belt and coat on (I think coat) and you do not have to take
your computer out of the bag.

With GE you walk in the terminal and straight past security?

I agree Cassidy, I love my Mobile Pass. It is the fastest way through for a
guy who always gets the slow line.

Yeah, you get free Pre-check if you get Global Entry. If you bought Pre-check
before getting Global Entry nothing changes, you just get Global Entry.
Honestly, I’d not worry about Global Entry if your airport you fly into
accepts the mobile boarding pass, which most do now. You literally walk by
everybody at all the kiosks (global entry included). Most have mobile passport
in the same queue for CBP review as those with Global Entry.

Are you saying TSA Precheck comes with Global Entry? I have TSA Precheck
but never heard of Global Entry before today.

I have Global Entry and love it, I am TSA Precheck (I think that pretty
much comes with GE and with status) and I have not seen a big difference
between that and Clear, interested to see what you think. Also look into an
app called Mobile Pass. It only works at certain airports but it basically
lets you do everything you would do at a kiosk ahead of time and walk straight
up to the Customs Agent.

I have had a global entry card from the moment they became available. I
love it. Check yourself into the country when arriving from overseas. Skip
the long lines. No removal of belt, shoes, computers from bags etc.
I just now signed up for Clear. So supposedly I can skip the lines and
go directly to the TSA guy. Will see. $79/year if you are a Delta skymiles
member. $50 for spouse. Could make the difference on making a flight if
running late.
Will be trying it in a week or so.
