Expeditedscreening through theU.S.
TransportationSecurityAdministration (TSA)
The TSAmanages andoperates , an expedited security screening
program that allows certain travelers tomove through securitymore
quickly and easilywhendeparting fromparticipating airports in theU.S.
The TSA, not United, randomly selects travelers for expedited screening.
The ability touse lanes ismost consistent for travelerswho
have joined aDepartment ofHomeland Security Trusted Traveler
program. After completing abackground check and screening, travelers
who are enrolled in a Trusted Traveler program are issued aKnown
TravelerNumber (KTN) or PASS ID.Members of theU.S. ArmedForces,
including those serving in theU.S. Coast Guard, Reserves andNational
Guard, canuse theirDepartment of Defense (DoD) identificationnumber.
This number shouldbenotedwhenmaking a flight reservation, or you
can add it to an existingUnited reservation through the “Edit traveler
information” option at united.com/managereservations.
As of April 2015, travelerswithout aKTN/PASS ID/DOD IDnumber,
including thosewhopreviouslyopted in through a frequent flyer
program, will notice a reduction in thenumber of times they are chosen
by the TSA for . Additionally, the TSAwill always incorporate
random andunpredictable securitymeasure throughout the airport, and
inorder to retain a certain element of randomness, no individualwill be
guaranteed expedited screening. Visit tsa.gov/tsa-precheck to learnmore.
