RE: Global Entry for 5 years (and more) for $50 (If you can get to a border interview)

Note: NEXUS apparently is a Canadian managed program.  So therefore the differences from our Global Entry.

 If you haven't heard of this, maybe you will be interested.  My son married a Canadian (who is a wonderful by the way) and needs to buy NEXUS cards for his family's for border crossings.  Low and behold there is an added cookie when you buy the $50  NEXUS card........... YOU GET GLOBAL ENTRY FOR 5 years for FREE!!!!! 

This could make it more appealing for flyers plus you get faster lane border crossings for Canada and Mexico.  Ahhhhh, pour me a margarita!!!!!

One more to read:

Looks like NEXUS is a Canadian program and there are a few little issues besides having to be intereviewed close to the border by Canadian officers. .  Here is another read on it:  http://www.Forbes.com/sites/marcwebertobias/2014/09/02/global-entry-and-nexus-passes-what-you-need-to-know-to-keep-them-valid/

It happened again yesterday. As I was putting this TravelSkills post together, yet another boozed up traveler described as “uncooperative and combative” was taken into custody at LAX  and was dragged away “kicking and screaming.”
