Having TSA PreCheck is one way to take the hassle and angst out of traveling through the airport. With TSA PreCheck, you get expedited security screening and don’t have to take off your shoes or remove laptops from your bag. It’s a great way to save you valuable travel time.
And now you can use your TSA PreCheck benefits when you’re flying on 9 new airlines! That brings the total number of airlines participating in the program to 65.
Below is an updated list of all airlines in the program. I’ll remind you of the perks of having TSA PreCheck and how to enroll, and how to use credit cards (like these) to get it for free!

A number of cards cover the price of enrollment (as a statement credit) in TSA PreCheck or Global Entry, including:
- Chase Sapphire Reserve®
- Citi® / AAdvantage Executive World Elite™ Mastercard®
- Capital One® Venture® Rewards Credit Card
- US Bank Altitude™ Reserve Visa Infinite® Card
- The Platinum Card® from American Express
- IHG® Rewards Club Premier Credit Card
- The Business Platinum® Card from American Express
- United℠ Explorer Card
If you use one of these cards for your TSA PreCheck or Global Entry application, you will be automatically reimbursed. But I recommend signing up for Global Entry instead of TSA PreCheck because when you have Global Entry, you’ll almost always be approved for TSA PreCheck. And Global Entry helps you avoid long lines at US Customs & Immigration when you’re coming home from international travel.

It’s also worth mentioning that children 12 & under can go through TSA PreCheck with an enrolled parent/guardian, so it’s great for families with younger children. Only the adults need to enroll and the whole family can go through the PreCheck line.
Since Sept. 9 2016 does Swiss Air ( written Swissair)not exist anymore.
It is called: Swiss International Airlines.
Or just : Swiss.
The only problem with the TSA PreCheck program is if you have metal implants. TSA freaks out and it takes you just as long to get through security.
I never considered that, is there anyway to get a special card or exception? I wonder if a note from a doctor would help.
