Does anyone here use them? Does it really save time together with TSApre?

They are available in a whole bunch of airports including LGA and JFK.

I have a friend who uses it. In some ways, it's better than precheck. It also works for non airport facilities.

That is what it sounds like. I would imagine that for many here who fly out of NYC fairly often this should be well worth it and I am surprised it is not discussed more. There are 2 threads from 4-5 years ago when they were in much fewer airports and that is it.

Rates are much better through Delta.
For regular Skymiles member's it's $99 annually compared to $179.
Or if you are Platinum / Gold / Silver Medallion Members and
SkyMiles Credit Card Members, it's $79

I'd pay $79 if I knew it worked for DW and child the way precheck does.

Meanwhile it seems that no members have it. I find that shocking.

If there is particular information, or experience based info that you can't seem to find, I'd be happy to ask my friend. I believe he has it through work, and uses it quite often.

You get one additional household member for $50 and anyone under 18 is free.

I would love to hear how much time he feels it saves him per flight and the like. Basically a review of what it does and doesn't help with.

I'll ask him. I believe he used precheck previously, so I'll see if I can get a comparison.

From what it seems the 2 are mutually exclusive.

Eh, still will cost me $129 even with the discount, and I usually travel with DW, so it's useless unless she gets it as well.

Seems so. I'll see what he says.

At that price, it would really have to offer a lot for me to not be happy sticking with precheck.
