Caribbean Airlines is pleased to announce that the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) approved it as a participating airline in the TSA PreCheck® program. Eligible passengers flying on Caribbean Airlines will be able to have the same expedited airport security screening experience that is available at more than 200 U.S. airports.

Eligible Travelers:

  • U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, and lawful permanent residents may apply or renew for TSA PreCheck.
  • Other persons may also check their eligibility by applying for Global Entry, NEXUS, or SENTRI, which may include TSA PreCheck benefits.

Benefits of TSA PreCheck:

  • Get through airport security lanes more efficiently
  • Keep your shoes, belts, and light jackets on
  • Leave laptops in your bag
  • 3-1-1 liquids remain in your bag

Enrolling in TSA PreCheck is easy via https://www.tsa.gov/precheck. Once approved, travelers receive a unique Known Traveler Number (KTN) that when added to their Caribbean Airlines reservation, makes them eligible to use TSA PreCheck lanes at airport security checkpoints throughout the United States. Most new enrollees receive a KTN within three to five days, though some applications can take up to 60 days.

Approved TSA PreCheck passengers may enter their KTN at any point prior to their travel via www.caribbean-airlines.com, during web check-in, via the Caribbean Airlines Reservations Call Centre or at any Caribbean Airlines ticket office or check-in counter.
