Just got my conditional approval.

Coming to US end of August, departing mid Sept. Glad to see there are options that fit. Then again I have 4 cities I may visit, so not a real surprise I guess.

My first choice, Denver, had a big " nothing" message. Not even a calendar to look at.

LAX had one date in Sept that might fit depending on my flight schedule and I jumped on it. If I end up stopping over in LA, Long Beach is a good option, as it is wide open.

SeaTac works too for my dates.

Vegas showed nothing after June.

Suggest keep checking every hour or so after the offices open as they tend to get the cancels in the system on people who may have walked in elsewhere or canceled online. Found LAX for 4 days later doing this.

May not help a lot of us, but as of this morning MCI has a lot of openings on Saturdays and Sundays in May. They didn't have these yesterday.

Weird the Goes site showed MCI only being open on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday when my wife applied last week. Still awaiting approval and was hoping to go down in May so a weekend would be a bonus.

I agree. I was able to get a Saturday in May several days ago, but rescheduled today so entire family is at the same time or next to it. Makes me wonder if it could be a mistake. Has anybody encountered dates that were mistakenly available on the GOES site? If so, what happened?

Yes, LAX mistakenly had Weekends on the list - they were all cancelled

Well I got approval notice for my wife today and booked a Saturday in May at MCI. I will update what happens. I also noticed other towns not listed as being interview sites had dates available. (OMA, LNK) The OMA was a full serve Marriott even. Points and an interview ^


For the LAX cancellations do you know how far from the appointment date they cancelled? Would hate to lose the chance to book another local appointment if they were cancelled.

Good news re MCI - my son went for his appointment at MCI today and asked about the Saturday and Sunday openings in May. Agent who interviewed him confirmed they will be interviewing on those days.

SeaAc timing
 
Do you think I can get the interview done with just a 90 minute Delta layover on my way to DEN? GE is wide open for my dates passing through.

Arriving from ICN but hopefully getting out at front of plane. Not sure how far the Global Entry office is from immigration. I remember SeaTac is not a huge place, but if it is more than 15 minutes walk I might rethink the routing.

Thanks for the link.
The note about the Delta counter makes it much clearer.

From the link in the above post:

500 interview slots are available at a Global Entry enrollment event at the Oshkosh Air Show. The temporary Enrollment Center will open July 24 through July 30, 2017, between the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm.

chance of BNA cancellations?
 
BNA is booked up until early September. Yesterday, August time slots were still available.

Has anyone experienced openings (within the current month/week) at BNA by refreshing every 30 minutes?

I feel like I may waste my time doing that.

You are not wasting your time, refresh when BNA GE office is open, 12:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m., Tuesday - Thursday. I refreshed every 5 to 10 minutes for SFO and YVR while these offices were open. I found something acceptable in about two days. So you need to double or tripple your effort:) or find an alternate location with more available slots.

Are you flying to/through any location soon with a Global Entry office? If you are going to Miami, they have plenty of available slots. Or come to SFO for a short vacation, SFO GE office accepts walk-ins with no limit.

Good luck and let us know what you found.
