....here's another option....received notes from retirees who have chosen to go global.....thanks!  CF
............We chose to do the Global Entry program, which is $15 more but includes International Travel as well.  http://www.cbp.gov/global-entry/about 
Take a look at it.

also....................
If you have $15 more and do lots of international travel then think about the more inclusive "Global Entry" !
What the TSA Pre-Check does for getting you in and on the airplane the "Global Entry" does getting you
back into the country and thru Customs as well as all the TSA Pre-Check functions.
Using the American Express Platinum card (not the Delta Platinum card!) - Amexco will reimburse you the cost
of either program.
Also note that both programs can be used for Non-Revenue travel speeding you on your way to the standby
road block at a gate near you ! You will not miss your flight waiting to be cleared thru the TSA portal !
I have the Global Entry program and the wait getting thru TSA is right around 3 minutes or less.
"Time is everything" !

I'm passing along information regard TSA Precheck ...... it really makes getting through airport security/screening a lot easier for us low-risk trusted travelers!   The application/processing fee is $85 and that covers the traveler for 5 years.   Many cities have offices where you can make an appointment and go in person.  Please see below for more links and information.

Subject: Search & Book you own interline travel online!

Dear Mark,
A good friend of mine owns an interline travel agency has developed a website that allows airline employees to Search & Book their own interline travel online.  The site has lots of new features that are not found at other interline vendors.  The Interline Center website allows you to look at a profile of the ship, check the deck plans, and view up to 16 available cabins per category - just to name a few of the unique features of this website.  I don’t know any other interline website that allows the customer to see cabin availability. After you’ve found the perfect cruise you can book it yourself online without having to call a travel agent.  The site also allows you to book all-inclusive resorts and river cruises. The prices listed are the lowest interline rates available.
Click on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1biRhAwjzg&feature=youtu.be for a video previewing this new website.
Click on http://www.interlinecenter.com to Search & Book your own travel with Interline Center.
Check it out! I would appreciate you posting this information on the Delta PCN (Pilots Communication Network).
Thanks,
Captain Ron Stowe, Retired
