I hope I get this right.

When I am flying into Canada I use my Nexus number and enter Canada via Nexus so having Nexus on file makes sense.

When I am flying into the USA I use my KTN number and enter the USA using GlobalEntry so having the my KTN on file makes sense.

When boarding a flight in the USA - no matter the destination, having the KTN number on file gives me a chance at PreCheck.

Therefore - if travelling between the USA and Canada it makes sense to have both numbers on file.

But does it really since both numbers are the same? LOL
