Your FF credentials are all you need.We'll I'll see next year when we have a direct flight from SXM to Philly if we have precheck and go thru Immigration. Right now I'm not biting the hand.
i looked at the chart and we neither applied for nor paid for Precheck.
Ah yes John, I stand corrected. I forgot about airlines specifically granting TSA Pre-Check. Because my regular airlines into and out of the US are Air Canada and Westjet, I need Nexus to be eligible for TSA Pre-Check as well.
So Andy, rock on!
We enrolled in TSA Pre which has been a life saver for our flights in the U.S. Unfortunately there is not a way to enroll in GE in Indianapolis.
All,
What I have learned about PreCheck is that the airlines transmit your flight information to TSA IMMEDIATELY after you book your flight. If your trusted traveler info isn't already in your profile of that airline's website, you will NOT get PreCheck. Entering it later will not help for that flight, but it should get you PreCheck for all flights booked after you entered it. That isn't clear from the airline websites. Hope that helps.

With Global Entry one is eligible for TSA Pre-Check. The number on your Global Entry card is the number you use for the airlines "Trusted Traveler" programs. Even if you register your "Trusted Traveler" number with the airlines there's never any guarantee you'll be granted TSA PreCheck on your ticket on any given flight. Selection is random and not guaranteed for all flights.
