TSA Pre✓® is an expedited screening program that enables identified low-risk air travelers to enjoy a smart and more efficient screening experience.

The TSA Pre✓® Enrollment is coming back to Destin – Fort Walton Beach Airport. The temporary application center is to be located in the baggage claim area, July 16-20 and July 23-27, 2018.

Over 200 airports nationwide and more than 50 airlines provide TSA Pre✓®, including all four airlines that fly with VPS.

“We are excited to provide this convenient enrollment process for our region’s travelers,” said Tracy Stage, Okaloosa County Airports Director. “With the recent addition of our dedicated TSA Pre✓® security lane, passengers can immediately enjoy these services at our hometown airport.”

Ninety-two percent of TSA Pre✓® passengers waited less than five minutes in May 2018, according to Stage.

The in-person enrollment process takes only 10 minutes which can be scheduled at the following address: https://www.identogo.com/precheck.

How does TSA Pre✓® work?
If you’re eligible and approved for the TSA Pre✓® program, you will be given a Known Traveler Number “KTN” to use when making flight reservations. KTNs can also be saved in an airline or travel agency profile. Participating airlines will print a TSA Pre✓® indicator on your boarding pass. When you arrive at the airport, look for signs for the TSA Pre✓® lanes and present your boarding pass and Government-issued ID to the Travel Document Checker.

Children ages 12 and under may join you in the TSA Pre✓® lane. For some frequently asked questions from the TSA about TSA PreCheck, please visit https://www.tsa.gov/precheck/faq.
