Can you have multiple known traveler numbers?

Yes, you will. I did the same thing a few months ago. My old TSA KTN will expire soon, but for the last 6 months or so, I've had two KTNs (Known Traveler Number). I've used the overlap period to make sure all of my travel accounts are updated with the new number to insure a smooth transition when my old one expires.

More travelers have KTNs than redress numbers, but it's possible to have both.
