What about a AA ticket booked with avios? Global entry helps flying into JFK?

They don't take part in the program, there's a list of participating airlines on the TSA website.

Only American carriers (+AC) partake in Precheck, and for GE upon landing, no need to enter info for that

So I got GE for myself, my wife, and my 11 month old kid. I just tried using it, and when I put on my kids passport, it said no biometrics on file. Any idea what this means? I paid the $100, took her to the meeting and have a GE card for her. What exactly are they charging, and giving GE to infants for if they can't take their fingerprints?!?
you just take your kids to the officer sitting at the exit of the global entry kiosks and they will scan the kids passports instead of needing to wait on the regular lines

+1. That's what they should've told you to do when you had your initial meeting.

That's what I thought until I asked them and they put my number into my reservation.

Hi Guys,

I bought three tickets on AA LGA-ORD for the 26th, but I want to change it to a later flight. Anyway to do that without costing me $200 pp? (ticket is only about $50)

Schedule change? although I doubt that will happen so close in.
Otherwise same day flight changes are usually cheaper

Or you could try showing up late and hoping they put you on the next flight.

LGA-ORD is a busy route. I'm afraid they won't have availability.

AA.com is not allowing me to rebook since it's duplicate.

On the contrary. Since there are so many flights, they'll most probably have something available.

In any case, if you've booked it as a RT and you miss you're outgoing leg, you're return will be canceled as well.
