Have been considering it. I refuse to submit to a body scan. So I always force a full pat down.
Flying a bit more recently, and think I will do the precheck option now. FFS! LOL callndumb, glad to see you are still with us. Ican see how you wouldn't understand seeing as how you have no principles and not much occasion to fly anywhere.

I have had 80-100 flights last year. Anything to make travel more seamless and faster is worth is generally worth it at that volume.

Where will the fast line be when everyone has TSA precheck? A few years back returning from Hawaii, my girlfriend and I both had precheck, her daughter didn't. Daughter beat us to the gate.

I have it. Although I miss getting the full body scan. They put you through the body scan if you have any metal inside you. The biggest.advantage of having it for me is flying out of an airport like Fort Meyers where the Geriatrics try to carry on everything but the kitchen sink.

Well worth it. Generally the security lines for precheck are much shorter and you don't have to take off your shoes, remove laptop etc. Well worth it.

It seems to run 50/50 on who gets through first these days.

If you fly more than a couple times a year it’s worth it. Used to have it when I was in uniform, but don’t anymore. It did smooth things out quite a bit.

I did it, it really helps if you travel much and via large airports, saves much time and hassle. Getting in the short line in Atlanta for 10 minutes vs 45 minutes and not taking your shoes off is worth it alone. Only for domestic, not international.

What do the 'Fire conspiracy realists think of the TSA Precheck process?
Good or bad? If you travel a lot, worth every penny. Once registered and when you book a flight, your boarding pass is already marked as such.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Once registered and when you book a flight, your boarding pass is already marked as such. As long as you have a profile established with the airline and it includes your TSA #. Unless things have changed, I haven't established a profile in a few years.

Yep, just wanted to point out that it's not automatic.

I use it most times I fly commercial. 2-4 times per week. It’s good!
