TSA PreCheck reaches 1 million-traveler markThe Transportation Security Administration reached what seems like a lofty milestone last week when it announced it had screened 1 million passengers through a new accelerated security program. The PreCheck program lets travelers who volunteer background information to the TSA ahead of time go through special screening lanes without removing shoes, belts and coats. It operates at only 14 airports, including Minneapolis-St. Paul International, and is open to preapproved passengers of three U.S. carriers: American, Delta and Alaska airlines. Chris McLaughlin, an administrator at TSA, said PreCheck is set to expand to 35 of the nation's biggest airports by the end of this year.
