I may be one of the last persons to get my GE interview, about a week ago.
It was a true PITA to even get an interview scheduled, here is how I did it:

What I have found is, good luck being able to schedule an interview on their online website, they all say 'none available'.
What they want you to do is TRY to schedule an interview on a return trip at one of the major airports, but good luck with that, too.
What has happened (they say) is that they have sent a ton of their agents that normally do the screening interviews to the border
to help there (starting in the summer of 2019). I have been trying to schedule an interview in Dallas, Denver, St Louis, Minneapolis,
and there are no available times (as of 4 weeks ago). I called the Kansas City office direct for 2 months, and finally got an interview
scheduled - they had ONE slot, and I took it.
What they also told me is they open up slots on the 1st and the 15th of each month, and they fill almost immediately.

So there you go, look on the mornings of the 1st, or the 15th and 16th...

When I first signed up for GE, I did it at JFK booking the appointment 3 or 4 days in advance when I knew I had a flight through there. MCI wasn't even a choice back then. But now, I figured I'd at least be able to get an interview in the fall...
See my reply in the posting above this.
