U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will run a three-day “pop-up” Global Entry enrollment event at West Virginia International Yeager Airport (CRW) from 3–5 March 2026, the airport authority confirmed on 2 February. Conditionally approved applicants can schedule on-site interviews at the CBP facility in Charleston instead of waiting months for an appointment at busier centres.
Pop-up events have become a lifeline for corporations whose frequent travellers face 8- to 14-month backlogs for Trusted-Traveler interviews. By bringing CBP officers to secondary airports, companies can clear groups of relocating employees in one trip, saving airfare to major hubs.

Companies that already manage visa or travel‐permit logistics through VisaHQ may find it useful to integrate Global Entry reminders into the same workflow. The platform’s dashboard—available at https://www.visahq.com/united-states/—centralises deadlines, document checklists, and status alerts, allowing mobility coordinators to track multiple applications in one place.
Global Entry also includes TSA PreCheck, so successful applicants enjoy expedited re-entry and domestic screening—benefits that speed rotational assignments and reduce missed-connection risk. Applicants must still complete the online application and receive conditional approval before booking a slot.
Mobility coordinators should alert employees based in the Mid-Atlantic and Appalachia; appointment availability is first-come, first-served and previous pop-ups (e.g., Boise, Myrtle Beach) filled within hours. Employers should also budget for the $120 fee (often reimbursable) and remind travellers to bring a valid passport and proof of U.S. residency to the interview.
