I wish we could do that around here; the closest place to Topeka is in Manhattan according to the TSA Prescreen website. I did the pre-application; I will be in Manhattan next week for a presentation but I need the Pass about a week later so I didn't know if that would be enough time.

I heard another story recently, where an agent confiscated his knife here at DFW and the guy found it about three months later at a pawnshop in Austin. |

Also, if you live near a border crossing to Mexico (we live in San Diego), GE includes Sentri which can save you HOURS at the border. The catch is that every person in the car must have their GE card. However, those that don't can get out and use the pedestrian crossing which might be 30 minutes rather than 2-5 hours in the regular car line. |

Plus for TSA PreCheck, it is for $77.95 - $85 ($68.95 - $70 online renewal), depending on application servicer. But this lasts you 5 years. Clear on the other hand using biometric data to identify travelers (rather than manually checking photo identification), Clear machines allow flyers to bypass long security queues and get to a TSA screening point faster. This, however, does NOT come along with TSA PreCheck stuff. So if the OP value not having to remove shoes, electronics, liquids and outerwear, OP will also want to apply for TSA PreCheck. Clear also is expensive ($199) and have to renew it annually. |
