The Visa Waiver Program (VWP), celebrated by those citizens of countries who are beneficiaries, and recently expanded to include a host of new nations, is becoming more and more burdensome.
One of the benefits of the VWP is an individual of a designated country could simply board a plane with their passport, hassle free.
Now, VWP travellers must obtain pre-authorization prior to their travel. The frequent traveller/business-person can no longer purchase a ticket and conveniently board a plane to the United States. One can apply on the Customs and Border Patrol website for Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA).
A VWP travller now must receive authorization to travel before embarking on travel to the U.S. If denied, the traveler must obtain a nonimmigrant visa at the consulate.
