A heads up for those that travel to the USA often, you may already know this, but the UK and Ireland residents can apply for Global Enty.
This come with TSA pre check and gives you an easier way through us customs and boarder protection gates.
The process is very simple.
First you apply for a UK reference number which states you are not a felon ;-) this is very quick, normally a max of 2 days
Then with that number you apply online at https://ttp.cbp.dhs.gov/
The period yiu have to wait can be varied
You then get a conditional approval.
With this, you can apply for an interview at a USA airport (or even Dublin)
But, you can get a Enrollement on Arrival, which is where when you get to, say MCO, at customs ask for the officer doing EOA and he carries out the interview there and then.
This lasts for five years and means when you arrive at MCO, go straight to the machines input your passport and fingerprints and away you go
