Global Entry is a program run by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection service, and it allows pre-approved, low-risk travelers to breeze through immigration upon landing in the U.S., no matter which airline you've flown. As you approach border control, you can skip the long line of non–Global Entry folks and make your way to a kiosk. The machine will take your photo, process your information automatically, and then a CBP agent will call your name and let you into the country. There isn't usually a line, as the process is mainly automated and very speedy.
Global Entry costs $100 per year (many credit cards offer reimbursement for it as a member benefit) and is valid for five years, after which you'll need to apply for renewal. And most importantly, it comes with TSA Precheck, so you get the best of both worlds! But do note that you won't be able to bring children with you—they need to apply for Global Entry separately.
