The TSA's Precheck program expands to 2 new US carriers
The TSA’s expedited screening program, called Precheck, is receiving fresh attention this season as long lines around the country push passengers to consider alternative paths through airport security. Though the program had over 2m members as of earlier this year, the rate of enrolment had since dropped, making the number of registered travellers far lower than the agency had originally projected. New subscriptions to the Precheck program come from Frontier Airlines and Spirit Airlines. Frontier plans to unroll its Precheck participation in August of this year while Spirit’s plan calls for integration in late 2016. So far, budget carriers like Frontier and Spirit have been resistant towards enrolling in the Precheck program because of the cost of integration versus adoption in the budget travel market. <br/>
