We have it and it's worth it!! Boss uses it alot more than I do. 1-2 Minutes at a kiosk on arrival at JFK instead of 20-45 mins or more
in line? Not for me! No forms to complete (unless declaring for customs)--no blue immigration form!
Go to kiosk, see flight info, scan, pause and go. If you enter the US 5 times year X 5 years, what's it worth to save that time (particularly for a connection) ? It's worth 4 bucks to me!!
And they gave us a nice leather-like passport case after the interview.
You can also go hog wild and get the Amex Platinum card for 2 people for $600+ for the first year, get 2 Global Entry (5 yr) reimbursements, $200 off airline fees, drinks/food on board, access to DL, AA, US air lounges for a year, plus Priority Pass Lounges all over the world (3 yr ultimate membership) plus Starwood Hotels Gold Status (without the extra stays) , lots of other goodies. No foreign exchange fees when used overseas--that can be a alot.
Even tho we already paid for GE, that card is perfect for us because of all the perks we actually use. We earn points to spend on stuff and can transfer to some programs as needed (like Starwood pts for free stays, then get upgrades as Gold) Pricey but if you use it, it's good. At the end of our year, I'll negotiate the next yr fee.
