Ford International Airport Now Offering TSA PreCheck®
Enrollment
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., March 6, 2025 – Gerald R. Ford International Airport is thrilled to offer TSA PreCheck® enrollment through CLEAR, an official TSA PreCheck enrollment provider. This service is part of the Airport’s continuous efforts to enhance the guest experience with additional amenities. Enrolling in TSA PreCheck allows travelers to enjoy a faster, more convenient security screening process.
TSA PreCheck members benefit from the convenience of keeping shoes, belts and light jackets on during the security checkpoint process. They can also leave electronics and 3-1-1 compliant liquids in their carry-on bags. Members generally experience faster security screening, with about 99% of them waiting less than 10 minutes at airport checkpoints nationwide.
“The Ford International Airport is committed to offering a wide range of amenities for our guests, and we are thrilled to now provide TSA PreCheck enrollment onsite,” said Tory Richardson, president and CEO of the Gerald R. Ford International Airport Authority. “We’d like to thank CLEAR for providing this service at our Airport and for helping to elevate the guest experience.”
The CLEAR TSA PreCheck enrollment kiosk is located pre-security, next to the Visitor Information Desk at the Airport. The kiosk is open every day from 7 a.m. – 3 p.m. Individuals are encouraged to visit the official CLEAR TSA PreCheck website for more information on necessary documentation at https://tsaprecheckbyclear.tsa.dhs.gov/.
In addition to providing TSA PreCheck enrollment, CLEAR Mobile is available at the Ford International Airport. This service provides access to a dedicated lane at the security screening checkpoint for quicker, more predictable airport security process.
In 2024, the Ford International Airport recently set a new passenger record with more than 4 million travelers served. As the airport continues to experience record growth, it is expanding amenities for guests, including new restaurant and retail options, a sensory room, companion care restrooms, a parking reservation system, and more.
