Save time with TSA Pre✓®; enrollment event coming to RDM Nov. 18-22
REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) – Redmond Municipal Airport will be hosting a TSA Pre✓® enrollment event in collaboration with IDEMIA, a TSA Pre✓® authorized enrollment provider. Travelers will be able to enroll at 2252 SE Jesse Butler Circle from Nov. 18-22.
The program is open to U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals and lawful permanent residents.
The enrollment process is quick, convenient and even faster when the application is completed online beforehand at https://tsaenrollmentbyidemia.tsa.dhs.gov/programs/precheck. The in-person enrollment requires that applicants provide proof of identity, proof of citizenship, fingerprints and a photo. IDEMIA offers TSA Pre✓® enrollment for $78 and if approved, travelers get a five-year membership with the program.
Following the in-person enrollment appointment, most applicants receive their Known Traveler Number (KTN) in about three to five days. The KTN number must be added to flight reservations to enjoy TSA Pre✓® benefits.
TSA Pre✓® was created in December 2011 as a way to provide low-risk travelers with a smoother experience through airport security. It’s a great option for travelers looking to save time. Enrolled members do not need to remove shoes, laptops, 3-1-1 liquids, belts, or light jackets. They also access TSA Pre✓® dedicated screening lanes at over 200 participating U.S. airports nationwide.
“The holiday travel season is always one of the busiest times for commercial airports and with that comes longer lines at our counters and security checkpoints,” states Airport Director Zachary Bass. “Enrolling in TSA Pre✓® before traveling can make navigating holiday congestion a bit more manageable.”
