How often do you fly? Also, if you’re thinking of family travel. You would have to get clear for each family member I fly often I have TSA & Clear.

Definitely worth it for me. I fly a whole lot more than I ever wanted to but at least I don't have to stand in an hour long line. A whole lot less stress if you're on a tight schedule.

I just signed up last week. Took minutes. Approval within days by text and email.


Really? When I got it 3-4 years ago, you had to do do fingerprints and everything.

It's only $50 each for adult family members and free for family under 18.

Same here. Besides Chicago Armageddon weekend a few years ago, Precheck is never very long.

I understand SeaTac security including Precheck is long, so Clear is useful there.

How nothing has been done to improve that situation is beyond me. Embarassing how long that is.

I fly for work multiple times during the week. I have TSA-Pre. Does anyone here have Clear? Is it easier than Pre?

Knock on wood, but I have never been in a TSA pre line that was anything more than at most 10 minutes long. Therefore haven’t seen the need to get clear. The first time that bites me in the arse, I will definitely sign up.

TSA pre and global entry pretty much get the job done for me.

Ya I didn't have a bad time but I see stories all the time about it.

If it's staffing it's unforgivable. If it's airport layout etc. then that's a tougher thing to deal with.

Did the clear trial. It was nice, but was not worth paying for it. GE/PC >>>
