Obtain a TSA PreCheck number and you’ll spend much less time waiting in airport security lines and be less stressed! The cost is about $85 or less.
There are three parts to obtaining a Pre-Check Number:
- Complete an online application.
- Find a TSA Enrollment center and complete an interview.
- You’ll receive your TSA PreCheck number soon after the interview.
About 99% of TSA PreCheck® passengers wait less than 10 minutes.
We’re always on the lookout for ways to make travel more efficient. According to CardRates.com, some credit cards offer special incentives and even reimbursements for TSP application and renewal fees. Look for a credit card that meets your needs and be sure to check the annual fee and interest rates.
Active duty military members and DoD Civilians can sign up for PreCheck for free.
If you travel often internationally, consider Global Entry instead of PreCheck. Global Entry costs about $100. It provides all the advantages of PreCheck and allows you to get through customs much faster when you arrive back in the US.
Happy Travels!
