TSA PreCheck is a perk available to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents enrolled in one of the three following CBP programs:
To use the benefits of the TSA PreCheck, you need to enter your Trusted Traveller membership number (PASS ID) in the “Known Traveller Number” section when reserving flights or when filling out information in your frequent flyer profile.
By using your membership number, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will verify that you have the status of a CBP Trusted Traveller who is eligible to enjoy the perks of the TSA PreCheck.
To find your Trusted Traveller membership number (PASS ID), log into your GOES account and read number near the bottom of the page or from the upper-left corner in your Trusted Traveller membership card.
By enrolling into the TSA PreCheck program you will be able to expedite the screening process through the TSA security checkpoints.
Currently, there are over 200 participating airports and 56 U.S. airlines. You can find out more information about TSA checkpoints by calling their contact centre at 1-866-289-9673 or by visiting the clickable map on their web page.
