8. Easy process.

There's an interview involved.

My wife and I went in together. During the interview they wanted to talk about my military experience.

I suspect the interviewer was trained to detect if somebody was lying. So the questions are innocuous, but will reveal if you are not being truthful.

It's nice to have a card. "Trusted Traveler". Getting through Security is faster. I suspect the airline upgrades based on that as well. The big thing is when you come back into the U.S.. You bypass the line and go to a kiosk machine and you're in.
