Summary: Global Entry is a traveler’s dream, but depending on the demand in your city, applying for it can take some time. To speed up the process, try Enrollment on Arrival if you’re already traveling. When you sign up for Global Entry, you fill out an application online and (hopefully) get preliminarily accepted. From there, though, you have to schedule an in-person interview to complete the application process, and this typically means driving out to your nearest airport.
