Another awesome US immigration experience

Global Entry is open to U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, Dutch citizens, South Korean citizens and Mexican nationals. Canadian citizens and residents may enjoy Global Entry benefits through membership in the NEXUS program.

OK, I like Dutch people, but how'd they get into this sweet deal ahead of classic US friends-and-allies like the UK or Australia?

High-level cooperation/reciprocity of some kind

Further poking shows that American travellers on the Global Entry program can use our "SmartGates", but Australians don't get any advantages going the other way.

On the other hand, the AUSFTA gave us all sorts of other goodies; the E-3 visa being the biggie.

Australia is more like the lapdog of the US, not an equal allie...just my opinion ;)
