This. Twice now I've caught earlier flights because of GE, and I would have (and should have...) last week but I didn't want a middle seat in back (in the end, my flight terminated at IAD instead of DCA so I would have been better off in the middle).

At ATL in Dec. with the kiosks down we made it through in 15 minutes because there were a couple of GE folks ahead of us. The regular line was 45 minutes+ because it's Atlanta. Mrs GHF is sold on having it.
