The escape is carefully planned.
Travelers can use TSA PreCheck Touchless ID at over 60 airports, including Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York. The service is available through various airlines, including American, Delta, and United. To use the service, travelers must opt-in through their airline’s app and upload a passport photo. The TSA PreCheck Touchless ID lanes are typically marked by blue-and-green signage at checkpoints. The experience is often faster than using any other security lane, even Clear. Travelers should still bring their Real ID or an acceptable alternative to the airport, even if they’ve opted into TSA PreCheck Touchless ID.
And, of course, there’s always a chance that technology can malfunction, or some other snafu can arise that prompts officers to ask you to present a valid ID – because that’s just the way travel works.
