The trusted travel program can help bring some civility back into your international travel demands and help ease much of the stress and frustration of clearing customs and border protection on your return to the U.S. The program is not limited to high frequency travelers, but it is obviously a major benefit to those who do travel frequently as part of their regular duties for their multi-national employers.
