ONTARIO,
Calif., July 3, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Ontario
International Airport (ONT) today welcomed news that travelers can
now enroll or renew their membership in TSA PreCheck in either
of the popular Southern California
gateway's two terminals.
CLEAR, an authorized TSA PreCheck enrollment provider,
announced that travelers who are pre-enrolled in the Trusted
Traveler program can complete the process in minutes by
heading to any available enrollment location on the lower level of
Terminal 2 or 4. In addition to being pre-enrolled, travelers must
have a passport or other accepted form of identification. No
appointment is needed.
Existing TSA PreCheck members can renew in person or
directly on CLEAR's authorized TSA PreCheck website, regardless of
the provider they enrolled with originally.
TSA PreCheck provides expedited screening of passengers, with
wait times of 10 minutes or less for about 99% of members at
airport checkpoints nationwide. Members also benefit from the
convenience of keeping shoes, belts and light jackets on through
the security checkpoint, and keeping electronics and 3-1-1
compliant liquids in carry-on bags.
"We are delighted to offer this added benefit to our travelers
and our community. TSA PreCheck is a great travel amenity, and
with our new CLEAR TSA PreCheck centers, the enrollment process is
more convenient than ever," said Atif
Elkadi, chief executive officer of the Ontario International Airport Authority.
In addition to offering TSA PreCheck enrollment on site, ONT
also has a U.S. Customers & Border Protection Global Entry
Enrollment Center at its international arrival facility. Global
Entry uses specialized processing technology and dedicated lanes to
expedite clearance for arriving international travelers who have
passed a rigorous background check and in-person interview. To set
up an interview at the Global Entry Enrollment Center, travelers
must first receive online pre-approval.
