Day of TravelTSA PreCheck

In order for the Customer to use the TSA PreCheck or TSA PreCheck® Touchless ID lane, the Customer must have the TSA PRE indicator on their boarding pass. However, children 12 years and younger are allowed through TSA PreCheck (but not TSA PreCheck® Touchless ID) lanes when traveling with eligible Passengers who have TSA PreCheck (parent or guardian). Children 13-17 may join enrolled adults in the dedicated lanes when traveling on the same reservation and if the TSA PreCheck indicator appears on the child’s boarding pass.
