News to me. Where does one find this app??
Edit: Is this the app? No, JD's post above is the GE app. I got it in the App Store for my iPhone. I assume ti its available for android devises also.

Has anybody used either of these options? We have friends that have Pre Check but don't have GE and they will be coming back from SXM through Miami mid March. Is one better than the other?
MJ and I have GE, works well for us. We also have Clear which for all of you connecting through MIA inbound from SXM if you drop off your bags after Clearing and instead of getting in the line right by the luggage drop leave the airport and not too far is a Clear station with Pre Check as well, a bit of walking but we have saved a lot of time doing that route especially with a short connection time. It feels weird at first leaving to go up to the regular check in lines but have done it twice now. T
I prefer the Isle seat

How does it work? Guessing - Download app, set up in app, then when you are entering the country do you go through the Global Entry line and if so do you then use the Kiosk or is there another line for MPC? This would be needed in Miami. I would like to be able to explain it to our friends.

Like with everything else with the airport, it still seems to be hit or miss on both ends.

Linda--So NO AA planes use jetways?? No idea about *all* AA flights. I just know that the ones departing from downstairs do not use jetways.
