TSA PreCheck is an accelerated security screening programme

TSA PreCheck is an accelerated security screening programme for passengers. With TSA PreCheck, travellers have access to a dedicated lane and can experience a more efficient airport screening process by not having to remove their shoes, light jackets and belts, and by leaving laptops and compliant liquids in carry-on bags.

An important step in the enrolment process requires travellers to visit a TSA application centre in person. The enrolment centre now open at Midway provides a convenient location for travellers flying through the airport or Chicago area residents.
