Air France and KLM are among five carriers that joined the
TSA PreCheck program on Thursday.
Also new to the trusted-traveler program are Brussels Airlines,
Philippine Airlines and Miami-based charter carrier World Atlantic Airlines.
The additions bring the number of carriers participating
PreCheck to 47.
A five-year PreCheck membership costs $85. Members, who must
pass a background check, are able to go through security at participating
airports without removing shoes, belts and jackets and without removing laptops
from their carry-on bags.
