TEMPORARY TSA PRECHECK® APPLICATION “POP-UP” SET TO RETURN TO WESTCHESTER COUNTY AIRPORT AUGUST 5 TO 9.
(Westchester, NY) – County Executive George Latimer announced that residents of Westchester County and surrounding areas will be able to enroll in the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) TSA PreCheck® program at Westchester County Airport from August 5 to 9, where Idemia will host a temporary “pop-up” enrollment center event.
Latimer said: “For the third time, we are excited to bring back this opportunity for local community members to enroll right here in our own centrally-located Westchester County Airport. We know this has been a widely popular pop-up opportunity in the past, and we are thankful to the TSA for their continued collaboration to offer this limited-time event once again.”
TSA PreCheck is a valuable travel option that expedites a traveler’s airport security checkpoint screening process. TSA PreCheck allows travelers to leave on their shoes, light outerwear and belt, keep their laptop in its case and their 3-1-1 compliant liquids/gels bag in a carry-on, in select TSA airport checkpoint screening lanes. More than 200 airports participate in TSA PreCheck nationwide and approximately 100 airlines participate in the program.
The application fee is $78 and is good for five years. It must be paid at the time of your appointment by credit card, money order, company check, or certified/cashier’s check. Cash and personal checks are not accepted. Fingerprints and a photograph also are required during the in-person enrollment session.
After completing enrollment, successful applicants will receive a Known Traveler Number (KTN) via U.S. mail within about 10 days that is valid for five years.
