TSA PreCheck® provides expedited security screening benefits for flights departing from U.S. Airports. Global Entry provides expedited U.S. customs screening for international air travelers when entering the United States.
TSA estimates that 95% of TSA PreCheck passengers wait less than five minutes in the security line. This is a small amount of time separating you from the back of the security line to the terminal, meaning the most useful benefit is, of course, saving time.
However, the answer is yes to the question Can I add TSA PreCheck to an existing reservation? You must update existing flights and your airline loyalty program profiles to be able to use the dedicated airport security lanes for PreCheck members.
