I spoke to a CBP Officer while going through CBP checkpoint, he said, I can tell you Global Entry was nice 5yrs ago, but over the next few years the CBP app will do also.
The new CBP App will allow quick process into the US without going through long lines. Global Entry is not a require to be a Envoy pilot. U.S passport and your background check will suffice.
Overall what I got from our conversation Is that He wouldn’t waste money or time going through Global Entry process. Once the CBP App becomes mainstream, then that will be a different story and Global Entry might become valuable again.
If you’ve travelled abroad recently you’ll know which app I’m talking about, if you listen definitely to the CBP video/audio presentation on the inbound flight into the US 1hr prior to arrival.
