ONTARIO, Calif., July 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ontario International Airport (ONT) today welcomed news that travelers can now enroll or renew their membership in TSA PreCheck in either of the popular Southern California gateway’s two terminals.
CLEAR, an authorized TSA PreCheck enrollment provider, announced that travelers who are pre-enrolled in the Trusted Traveler program can complete the process in minutes by heading to any available enrollment location on the lower level of Terminal 2 or 4. In addition to being pre-enrolled, travelers must have a passport or other accepted form of identification. No appointment is needed.
Existing TSA PreCheck members can renew in person or directly on CLEAR’s authorized TSA PreCheck website, regardless of the provider they enrolled with originally.
TSA PreCheck provides expedited screening of passengers, with wait times of 10 minutes or less for about 99% of members at airport checkpoints nationwide. Members also benefit from the convenience of keeping shoes, belts and light jackets on through the security checkpoint, and keeping electronics and 3-1-1 compliant liquids in carry-on bags.
“We are delighted to offer this added benefit to our travelers and our community. TSA PreCheck is a great travel amenity, and with our new CLEAR TSA PreCheck centers, the enrollment process is more convenient than ever,” said Atif Elkadi, chief executive officer of the Ontario International Airport Authority.
In addition to offering TSA PreCheck enrollment on site, ONT also has a U.S. Customers & Border Protection Global Entry Enrollment Center at its international arrival facility. Global Entry uses specialized processing technology and dedicated lanes to expedite clearance for arriving international travelers who have passed a rigorous background check and in-person interview. To set up an interview at the Global Entry Enrollment Center, travelers must first receive online pre-approval.
