Tomorrow I’m flying (from the US) to Asia. I used to fly intercontinental quite often, but I just realized this is my first time since 2019. Many plans were scrapped during COVID, but it’s finally happening! Next year I have two trips to Europe booked.

Do you have Global Entry? If not, try to get it before your trips to Europe. Well woth the investment and time when there’s a big line at Passport Control.
