Information about Flight Connections 

Miami International Airport (MIA) now offers Global Entry - a new program managed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) which allows pre-approved, low-risk travelers expedited clearance upon arrival into the United States.

Participants will enter the United States by utilizing automated kiosks located in the Passport Control area. The average time for Global Entry processing is 40 seconds. The program targets those who leave the country at least four times per year, mainly airline personnel and business travelers. Those participating in the program benefit from being better equipped to make tight connecting flights.

This program is available to U.S. citizens and legal, permanent residents and there is a $100 fee for a five-year registration. Apply online, view CBP's video: Global Entry Public Service Announcement or visit www.globalentry.gov for more information
