Please note this event is for TSA Pre✓® only, not Global Entry. TWIC enrollment will also be offered.
GNV has hosted six previous enrollment events, allowing thousands of people to easily enroll in the popular expedited screening program without having to drive to Jacksonville, Orlando or Tampa. To accommodate increased passenger traffic, GNV added a second screening lane in May 2018 and added TSA Pre✓® in October 2018. TSA Pre✓® is now available for all flights at GNV.
TSA Pre✓® is an expedited screening program that enables identified low-risk air travelers to enjoy a smart and efficient screening experience. For TSA Pre✓® travelers, there is no need to remove shoes, 3-1-1 liquids, laptops, light outerwear or belts. Today, TSA Pre✓® has more than 450 lanes at 200+ U.S. airports and in Nassau, The Bahamas.
The TSA Pre✓® application program allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to directly apply for TSA Pre✓®. Once approved, travelers will receive a “Known Traveler Number”(KTN), which can be added to a travelers airline profile and reservations and will have the opportunity to utilize TSA Pre✓® lanes at select security checkpoints when flying on over 80 carriers that currently participate in TSA Pre✓®.
