The TSA PreCheck airlines list keeps growing! That means you can get to your destination even faster with a new airline!
Via USA Today, Lufthansa is now participating in TSA PreCheck, making it the 18th airline in the expedited security program.
This is great news for folks who are enrolled in either Global Entry or TSA PreCheck. Because it can make a visit to the airport a lot less aggravating!

Get Free Enrollment in TSA PreCheck With These Cards!
There are several cards with a perk to cover the price of enrollment in Global Entry or TSA PreCheck, including:
- Chase Ritz-Carlton
- Chase Sapphire Reserve
- Citi AAdvantage Executive World Elite MasterCard
- Citi Prestige
- The Platinum Card from American Express
- U.S. Bank FlexPerks® Gold American Express® Card
After you use the card to pay for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck, you’ll receive a statement credit for the expense!
I recommend signing-up for Global Entry instead of TSA PreCheck.
That’s because when you have Global Entry, you’ll also be approved for TSA PreCheck on most flights. And Global Entry also helps you avoid the long lines at US Customs & Immigration when you return to the US from overseas!
This continued growth is a positive sign that TSA PreCheck is an effective program and will continue to expand! Which airlines will join next? Could it be Spirit and Frontier?
