Technology has really improved the passport control process in many countries over the past several years. I'm lucky to have dual citizenship (I have both a US and German passport),so between the two I have:-- Global Entry, which gets me expedited passport control in the US, and as well as access to SmartGates in Australia
-- My German passport gets me access to eGates in the EU and UKBetween the two passports,the time I have to spend waiting in line at airport immigration has decreased considerably. And that's a blessing given how long immigration queues can be at times.
I'm always looking for unique ways to shorten immigration queues, and earlier today decided to sign up for UAE Smart Gate as I was departing Abu Dhabi. Smart Gate allows you to consume the automated machines rather than having to wait for an immigration officer, or both on arrival and departure.
