Have you faced long lines at immigration when coming back to the United States? You may want to consider signing up for Global Entry. It allows expedited clearance for pre-approved, low-risk travelers upon arrival in the US. Members enter the US through automatic kiosks at select airports instead of facing potentially long lines. One of the better aspects of this program is that it includes TSA PreCheck which allows for expedited screening at TSA checkpoints. TSA PreCheck allows you expedited security checks — no need to take your shoes off, liquids and laptop in your bag.
Visit the Global Entry site for program specifics.

You forgot to mention US Bank’s new Attitude Reserve card. They offer a $100 credit for Global Entry every 4 years.
Not sure why you would recommend 5 cards that aren’t free and claim that they give you Global Entry credit for free.
Bank of Omaha TravElite is actually free and gives you a free global entry credit.
How often can you use the rebate for each card? That’s some important info…
