Global Entry

We bought our Global Entry cards In pre-pandemic days, Believing they would ease our travel In some helpful ways. But Covid hit soon after So those cards were never used, Yet when our trips resumed Our pre-check status was refused. The US airlines never gave An explanation why, But we kept trying every time We purchased seats to fly. Today, though, on Air Canada, An agent made a catch - My boarding pass and entry card Were not a perfect match. It seems there are 9 digit codes (2 sets!) on every card And entering the wrong one On a form was not that hard. The problem solved, we got new passes And were on our way, With pre-check status never given By the USA.
