This may have been posted before but I couldn't find it. With GE, I would assume the procedure with checked baggage is the same as without GE? Does GE facilitate the baggage process at all?

I'm sorry, but that is not completely correct. It truly does depend on the airport and what they have set up. As I stated earlier, CLT didn't have a separate customs line for GE participants the last time we flew through there, which was this past December. Apparently they do now, as another poster has stated, but as long as we have had GE, there has never been a separate customs line for GE at CLT. A separate immigration line, yes, but not customs.

Thanks all. We will be coming back thru CLT, and will make EVERY EFFORT (hope Katherine reads this) to have only carry on bags.

It was there in December of 2015, as we came back from SXM on December 10th and there was a GE line that we used.

In CLT, it really is the same exit as regular passengers, except you keep to the left side and that is the line for GE passengers. The only sign telling you is a stanchion sign that has the Global Entry logo on it. If you are looking for permanent signing directing you to a Global Entry exit, you won't find any. Just like you are told in the GE interview, it does not exempt you from inspection, but does give you head of the line privileges.
