Clear is a program which issues registered-traveler cards to fliers and allows them to bypass long security lines.
The $128 is worth the benefit. After customers submit to a background check, fingerprinting and an iris scan, they are granted this magical card.
There are 20 participating U.S. airports at this time but more and more, such as Atlanta Hartsfield, will open over time.
Some airports, such as New York’s JFK and LaGuardia, only accept the card at certain terminals.
When Clear card-holders are traveling, they may go through the (normally empty) Clear security lane which is separate from the others. The Clear customer shows the card and touches a screen to be identified through fingerprints.
Meanwhile, carry-ons pass through x-ray machines.
Delta was the first major carrier to support the program back in June.
Soon, Clear lanes will be added to Delta terminals at JFK, LaGuardia and Los Angeles International.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) was concerned that terrorists with no previous criminal record may be granted Clear cards, however, the purpose of Clear cards is not to allow travelers to bypass security screening, just the lines.
The agency uses $28 for the Clear program from every card issued. Apparently, existing customers are happy with the purchase because the membership renewal rate averages at over 90%. Travelers can sign up at participating airports, several hotels and New York’s Grand Central Terminal.
Airports that Accept Clear:
• Albany
• Atlanta
• Cincinnati
• Denver
• Indianapolis
• Jacksonville
• Little Rock
• Los Angeles
• Newark
• JFK, NY
• LaGuardia, NY
• Westchester, NY
• Reagan, Washington DC
• Dulles, Washington DC
• Oakland
• Orlando
• Reno
• Salt Lake City
• San Francisco
• San Jose
Whatever your final destination is, Clear offers a great resource to frequent travelers.
