It's a farcical situation.

For the past 2-3 years before we've boarded any aircraft for the US, airline employees have been taking details of where we'll be staying when in the US.

We then repeat this information on the Visa waiver form which we present to US Immigration on the way in and our fingerprints are taken.

We rinse and repeat the whole scenario on our next visit - and the one after that - and the one after that - ad infinitum and ad nauseum.

There are already murmurs within some EU countries that, if this goes ahead, US citizens will have to do the same when visiting countries in Europe.
