I was just able to add the information to my 2 exisisting itins with no problem and am now showing green.
To the poster who was having trouble with an INTL itin, I saw a note that said these itins also require passport information, so I suspect it will all be taken care of when you check in for the flight and fill in the information then.
PLEASE tell me that UA is working on a system that will allow us to enter this information somewhere ONCE so I don't need to keep doing this!!

Took three tries to get it to take. I agree with milepig and hope this gets added to our profiles.

Global Entry went very well. It was not busy because our plane arrived about ten in the morning (more than three hours late from GRU, Ugh). I am not sure how long the lines were for processing. I was the second person off the plane and was through the automated system in less than two minutes. I handed the G/E receipt to the customs officer and all he said was "hello and goodbye." That was fine with me.
I highly recommend the Global Entry system to eligible frequent travelers.
I suspect that the CBP system will help airlines and passengers solve some of the issues and misinformation that exist between the data found on the two computer systems.

My short review is "it rocks". This Tuesday I landed at ORD on a flight from FRA, walked into the immigration hall as one of the first off the flight and already saw a very long line. I walked right up to the Global Entry kiosk, entered my information, got the receipt, walked to the customs person (you bypass immigration completely) who took the receipt and waved me through. Entire time spent between deplaning and getting in my taxi? 5 minutes tops!!!!

global entry is awesome. as fast as nexus- those who go to canada often know what i mean- but with fingerprints instead of a retinal scan. i use it at sfo all the time now and it's like landing on a domestic flight it's so fast. ^

Success for one itinerary, couldn't save the second one after 2 tries. Logged out then back in, and green check mark appeared for the one that told me it couldn't be saved. So this won't be required until late 2010?

Ok, I added the data, but....
As I have reported in other posts, I have been consistently unable to check in online for a few months now. So I put in the info for secure flight, got the check mark...
But I still am blocked out from checking in for my flight tomorrow. Go figure!

I had to call the GS desk to cover this for my Sunday trip (inside of 72 hours)and then ended up talking to web support. Got it done. Had to update my SYD trip for later in the month and had no issues.
What a pain.
I better double check my blood type since this will be the next thing these TSA morons will want.

Everything was fine at first and I just logged in to see if a window seat has opened up and mine are missing too! Just tried to check-in and it sees I am flying tomorrow so maybe it is site-wide?

I was able to enter the information on 2 of my itineraries, and then .bomb decided that was enough for one day and it wouldn't let me enter the secure flight data for the other 3. This morning it can't find ANY of my itineraries, telling me to please try again later. What good are the new auto-fill airport code and calendar fields if the stupid website just doesn't work?!?
