Something like P/S[0] in LAX I presume. It's approximately the cost of an international business class seat. So yes it's expensive but not unaffordably so for working professionals. I've used it for international inbound a few times: being able to clear customs and immigration in ~5 minutes (!!) is almost worth the premium.

When I fly inbound I avoid LAX whenever possible. However, I've been told that Global Entry is now fairly streamlined, so perhaps I'll give that a try next time.
