Unsolicited advice: Not everyone is into sacrificing money to avoid bullshit security theater that has been going on for 17 years.
Trains have the beauty of being able to go to the station, hop on the train, hop off. No wait or lines. I've had great trips taking the subway to Union Station then a train to San Diego. If trains were more affordable, widespread, and faster, it'd probably help the US immensely.
- tehlike 8y agoIt may sound a bit arrogant, but global entry is 100$/5yrs, and TSA-pre is 80$ for similar amount of time. If you are well-off to be using air transportation, it would be worth it. Though, I might be agreeing with you on the utility of excessive security check. As a foreign national, I can tell you that US requires 4x the security checks in foreign airports in inbound flights to US.
