  Getting through airport security quickly, thanks to TSA PreCheck is one of the few things travelers can look forward to when flying. PreCheck is not available on all airlines yet, but the Transportation Security Administration announced the addition of eight smaller airlines to the program.

  You can now breeze through security with an expedited screening on Air Premia, Air Tahiti Nui, Air Transat, Bahamasair, BermudAir, Iberia, La Compagnie, and New Pacific Airlines.

  TSA PreCheck allows you to use a separate lane when departing the U.S., easily moving through the screening process without removing your shoes, belt, or light jacket, or your laptop, food, and liquids (that comply with the 3-1-1 rule) from carry-on luggage. PreCheck is available on nearly 100 airlines at more than 200 U.S. state and territory airports.

  Eligible travelers, including U.S. citizens, nationals, and lawful permanent residents, can apply for TSA PreCheck through any enrollment provider. Costs vary by provider. To enroll, visit tsa.gov/precheck, select one of the enrollment providersIDEMIA or Telosand complete a brief online application. Then, schedulea 10-minute in-person appointment to complete enrollment.

  Once youre approved, youll receive a unique Known Traveler Number (KTN). By adding this number to your flight reservations, youll be able to use TSA PreCheck lanes at security checkpoints nationwide. Your boarding pass must have the TSA PreCheck indicator (such as TSAPRECHK, TSA PRE, or TSA Pre✓) to confirm eligibility.
