Global Entry is totally worth it. It’s $15 more than TSA precheck and you have to do an in person interview at the airport, but so worth the hassle. You get precheck AND global entry which speeds you through immigration when you return to the US. Especially at airports like MIA, the lines can be daunting but with GE, you’re through in minutes. You can also do your interview when you are going through customs upon return from a trip, at certain airports.

We just got b back from Singapore, and using Global Entry was so easy. It was two of us versus a few hundred going through the regular line. Edit: My traveling companion did her interview and it vtook about five minutes, at the office located prior to baggage claim in Seattle. She was able to utilize Global Entry as well.

Haha Jay, now you have experienced business class, it will be very difficult to do long haul in economy! I’m old and grey and have decided that if I can’t afford business class for flights of 8 hours or more, I’m either going on a cruise ship, or I’m not going at all! I was recently in Japan and got 6 solid hours of sleep flying Westjet business class from Tokyo to Calgary. It was totally worth it! I have not flown on American but their setup in business class looks reminiscent of Virgin Atlantic and Air New Zealand, in that you face away from the window. Not my favourite setup, but I will be cruising to Australia in 2024 and coming back to Canada on Air New Zealand, so we’ll see!

The next morning I took the hotel’s free shuttle to the Narita Japan Rail station, but I did not take the train. I walked down a charming street to the Naritasan Shinshōji Temple, which is actually a big campus of historic temples and gardens. It was a lovely introduction to Japan. I even met an Air Canada pilot who was doing the same between flights. That afternoon I joined my group in Tokyo (we were doing a foodie tour).

I fly first class with American every time. With me being a large woman (though I have now lost 76 pounds!!), the seats are more comfortable. I love that my luggage is free AND I get it first. The snacks are always way better, too. When my granddaughter travels with me (she's 10), she loves it! Once we traveled with her parents, but they were in Economy (I bought her ticket so she would travel with me). One of the funniest moments was me joking with her that her parents were in the "peasant section." I was JOKING! But once on the plane, at one point she went to the back to find them. She came back up their aisle and said loudly, *"Grammy, I found them! They're at the front of the peasant section!"* Everyone up front started laughing. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, J!
