In a significant move to streamline family journeys, IDEMIA Public Security, a leading provider of secure biometric-based solutions, has partnered with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to launch an exclusive “buy one, get one off” discount on new TSA PreCheck enrollments for families. This initiative, part of the TSA’s “Families on the Fly” campaign, aims to make airport security more accessible and less stressful for travelers nationwide, especially as families gear up for fall and back-to-school travel routines.
For years, TSA PreCheck has been recognized as a gold standard in airport efficiency, providing travelers with a significantly smoother experience. Enrolled individuals benefit from dedicated security lanes, the convenience of keeping shoes, belts, and light jackets on, and liquids and laptops in their bags. These advantages are particularly appealing for families navigating the often-chaotic airport environment, making family travel considerably more relaxed and efficient.
The “Families on the Fly” campaign, specifically targeting the challenges of traveling with children, introduces a compelling travel discount through IDEMIA’s more than 500 enrollment centers. This limited-time offer allows families to enroll multiple members while enjoying a significant cost saving, as the promotion applies whether two or more family members enroll together, ensuring broader accessibility to expedited airport security.
Reflecting on this collaboration, an IDEMIA Public Security SVP for Global Corporate Relations shared, “For over 12 years, we’ve proudly enrolled travelers in TSA PreCheck, the gold standard in airport efficiency. With families benefiting tremendously from TSA PreCheck, and personally witnessing the stress of traveling with family firsthand, we are honored to partner with TSA on this latest initiative. Together with TSA, we’re making travel more accessible and less overwhelming for parents and kids alike.”
Beyond the cost-saving incentive, the “Families on the Fly” campaign also encompasses broader enhancements for family travel, including the provision of dedicated family lanes at select airports across the nation. Moreover, a key advantage for enrolled adults is the ability for children aged 17 and under to accompany them through TSA PreCheck lanes when traveling on the same reservation, with the PreCheck indicator conveniently appearing on their boarding pass.
IDEMIA’s role as a longstanding and trusted partner to the TSA is underscored by its impressive track record, having processed nearly 24 million enrollments for the TSA PreCheck program to date. This extensive experience highlights IDEMIA’s commitment to providing reliable and secure biometric solutions that enhance the travel experience for millions of Americans, solidifying their position in the landscape of airport security.
Enrolling in TSA PreCheck is straightforward, with travelers able to utilize any of IDEMIA’s numerous enrollment centers or attend local pop-up events. IDEMIA prioritizes convenience, offering ample appointment availability, often with next-day slots, and guaranteed availability within two weeks across all locations. This ease of access ensures that families can quickly take advantage of this new offer and begin enjoying the benefits of streamlined security.
