Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced the expansion of passenger pre-screening initiative to additional airports across the country following the program’s success at seven pilot locations. With more than 336,000 passengers screened to date through TSA Pre✓™ lanes, this screening concept enhances security by enabling TSA to focus its efforts on passengers the agency knows less about while providing expedited screening for travelers who volunteer information about themselves prior to flying.
TSA Pre✓™ is currently operating with American Airlines at airports in Dallas, Miami, Las Vegas, Minneapolis and Los Angeles, and with Delta Air Lines at airports in Atlanta, Detroit, Las Vegas, and Minneapolis. US Airways, United Airlines and Alaska Airlines are all opting in new passengers and will begin operations later this year. The passenger pre-screening initiative will be implemented at the following airport locations throughout 2012:
- Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI)
