Dear Globetrotter:

I read the letter “Global Entry Advantages” (Sept. ’14, pg. 54), regarding programs allowing approved travelers expedited security screening for selected departures in US airports.

My husband and I have had and have used the Global Entry program flawlessly on our returns from international trips. However, it has seldom been the case for us that TSA Pre√™ (Pre-check) has been assigned us on any domestic trips. Even queues marked “TSA Pre√/Global Entry” refuse us if “TSA Pre√” is not actually printed on our boarding passes.

Why apply for the TSA Pre√TM (Pre-check) program, alone (May ’14, pg. 65)? For $15 more, you can also skip those long passport lines on reentry to the US.
