Also, I'm planning on scheduling the interview during a 4hr layover at EWR next week... does anyone know what happens if you miss a scheduled interview? While I certainly plan on padding the arrival->interview schedule by a good bit, it's always possible that my inbound is cancelled or very heavily delayed... and I don't want to risk getting red-flagged.
The express purpose of the sticker is to get front-of-line privileges in the event of a machine failure. The way it was explained to me, the GE machines are monitored by the closest several CBP officer booths. If they see a GE member flag them, they serve that person prior to the next person in their direct line.
