TSA Pre Check and Global Entry suspended **Post # 29 apparent update --

[Genie+]

We have TSA pre-check and added Clear about 2 years ago.

We go to the Clear terminals at the right of Pre-check. So far never had to wait as agents and machines were available. They take our picture and documents, then they go to the pre-check security desk to cut us to the front, and we are ushered right through into the body/luggage screening area.

Not sure if it would work differently if I didn’t also have pre-check.

Ah, looks like Clear without Pre-check would only move us to front of regular security that has the standard screening process (shoes off, electronics out, liquids out, remove belts, jackets, etc), which is more prone to backing up.

I honestly thought Clear took you to the front of Precheck regardless. Could easily be wrong.

Clear only takes you to PreCheck if you have PreCheck.
