Any enrollment center can process your interview regardless of where you live, so applicants often book at a center within driving distance rather than waiting months locally.
Why do Global Entry slots at San Antonio International Airport disappear so quickly?
Open slots at a given center are shared across every applicant watching the CBP scheduler, and cancellations are released continuously rather than on a schedule. A slot that opens at 2am is often gone before most people check in the morning, which is why manually refreshing rarely works and automated monitoring does.
Do I need an appointment at San Antonio International Airport, or can I use Enrollment on Arrival?
If you are conditionally approved and have an upcoming international arrival, Enrollment on Arrival lets you complete the interview at a participating airport without a scheduled appointment. Availability varies by airport and is set by CBP, so confirm current participation at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov before relying on it. Otherwise you need a booked interview slot.
