WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Have you ever stood in the airport security screening line and looked enviously at the people who speed past you in the TSA PreCheck line?
The people in the Transportation Security Administration PreCheck line move faster because they don’t have to remove their shoes, laptops, liquids, belts or light jackets.
You could be in the fast lane, too, but you must apply and pay a $78 fee.
During the first two weeks of October, Wichita Eisenhower National Airport and IDEMIA will host a TSA PreCheck enrollment event at the airport.
Oct. 2-12: 9 a.m.-noon and 1-5 p.m.
Oct. 13: 9 a.m.-noon and 1-2 p.m.
Closed Saturday and Sunday
The event will be in the meeting rooms on the mezzanine level in the terminal. Free 60-minute parking is available in the airport’s short-term lot.
