Duluth International Airport is inviting passengers to enroll and become part of the new and very popular TSA Precheck screening program.

According to a press release, the Duluth International Airport will host the event from Monday, March 14th to Friday, March 18th. Times are from 9 am to noon and 1 pm to 5 pm. The TSA PreCheck event will be held in the Second Floor Conference Room #250.

If you haven't heard of this service, the TSA PreCheck screening program is a way for low-risk air travelers to a more efficient screening so you don't have to stand in line and it will streamline your check-in.

When you go through the TSA PreCheck program, you don't have to take off your shoes, take out your 3-1-1 liquids, laptops, or take off light outerwear (like sweatshirts or sweaters), or take off your belt. There are TSA PreCheck lanes at over 200+ airports right now, and you can finally enroll at the Duluth International Airport.

IMPORTANT! You will need to bring proof of identity and U.S. citizen documentation. If you have a passport that is all you need, otherwise you will need a birth certificate and driver's license.

When you come for your appointment, the folks running the event will capture fingerprints (used for a background check), and then you will pay $85 and that will pay for the application for 5 years of service. You can pay with a credit card, money order, company check, or certified/cashier's check. Cash and personal checks will not be accepted.
