The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced today the expansion of its TSA PreCheck expedited screening program with the addition of two new airlines, adding to the more than 80 TSA PreCheck participating domestic and international carriers.
The new airlines are Global Crossings, a charter airline serving the United States, Caribbean and Latin America markets, and El Al Israel Airlines. Based in Tel Aviv, El Al Israel Airlines currently operates from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, Miami International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport, with daily direct flights between the United States and Israel.
TSA PreCheck is an expedited screening program that enables low-risk travelers to enjoy a smart and efficient screening experience at more than 200 U.S. airports. Travel with ease by enrolling in TSA PreCheck and avoid removing shoes, belts, liquids, food items, laptops and light jackets. In October 2021, all of the passengers in TSA PreCheck lanes waited less than five minutes.
Enrolled airline passengers should look for the TSA Pre✓® indicator (such as TSAPRECHK, TSA PRE, or TSA Pre✓®) on their boarding pass to know if they are eligible for TSA PreCheck screening before their flight.
