Yes, CLEAR Plus is designed to significantly accelerate the identity verification portion of the airport security process. While standard security or even TSA PreCheck requires you to wait for a human agent to check your ID and boarding pass, CLEAR uses biometrics (iris scans or fingerprints) at dedicated kiosks to verify your identity in seconds. Once verified, a CLEAR Ambassador escorts you directly to the front of the physical screening line. For the most efficient experience, many travelers combine CLEAR with TSA PreCheck; this allows you to skip the ID line using CLEAR and then use the PreCheck lane for physical screening, where you can keep your shoes, belts, and light jackets on. In 2026, CLEAR is available at over 60 major U.S. airports and continues to expand, though it is a paid subscription service that is separate from government-run programs like Global Entry or PreCheck.
