Rare trbarton Posted November 25, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Anyone used the Mobile Passport in Huston, IAH, and how did it work? I'm on a United flight from Chilie & I understand that after customs there is someone there to reclaim your luggage for your continuing flight.

"MOBILE PASSPORT service is currently available at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL), Miami International Airport (MIA), Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO), with more airport locations to follow."

You are a bit out of date. According to the website http://www.mobilepassport.us/ It is live at 20 airports and one cruiseport (FLL). EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare azbirdmom Posted November 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Mobile Passport is just a faster way to get through immigration. It has nothing to do with luggage retrieval. That part should work the same way as it does now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted November 26, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Those using the Mobile Passport app still needs to pass thru a CBP officer to finalize inspection for entry into the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For android, the one cruiseport is missing from the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8tor Posted November 26, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Mobile Passport is available at IAH. While it's supposed to be faster than regular procedures (it is in SEA and MSP), there was no time savings in ATL. I don't know what your results will be in IAH. As for your luggage, you are correct about re-checking your non-carryon bags after clearing customs and immigration - it's no different than "regular" customs/immigration.

metairiegal Posted November 27, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 27, 2016 We already have Global Entry. Should we get this, too?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8tor Posted November 27, 2016 #9 Share Posted November 27, 2016 We already have Global Entry. Should we get this, too?? It's a FREE app for your smart phone, so why not? If you have both, you'll be ready to just get into whichever line is shorter. Just don't press "Submit" on the Mobile Passport app until you're sure that's the method you'll use (it only takes a few seconds to complete the process) since I'm not sure if GE will work properly if you already have submitted a MP transaction.
