OK, so it's off the AA topic in some ways, but what I think we're all saying is that it would be GREAT if AA extended a similar program to elites and/or passengers based on fare class.

But heck, I'd go for a queue in the US for US Citizens WITH a passport and US Citizens WITHOUT a passport.

Does anyone else get annoyed with this: people traveling with birth certificates, letters from ex-spouses, copies of pages from family Bibles, pictures of mom carrying baby home from the hospital, etc?

They get to the immigration officer and start breaking out envelopes with all this paper and no passports - and I have a meeting to get to!

I think I have heard this is coming to an end, though, and passports will be mandatory.
