Austin military community TSA PreCheck® “Serve with Honor, Travel with Ease” benefits

AUSTIN, Texas - Active-duty service members and their families traveling through Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) are eligible for expedited access at TSA PreCheck^® lanes. Military travelers should use the lane marked "Active-Duty Service Members, Use This Lane" at the TSA PreCheck entrance for front-of-the-line privileges.

"We are proud to support military members traveling through AUS," said Kieran Flynn, TSA federal security director for Austin. "Our partnership with the military community is important and expanding TSA PreCheck benefits helps the many active-duty service members and their families who live in Texas and use Austin's airport. TSA remains committed to making travel as convenient and stress-free as possible for those who serve our nation."

Military personnel do not need to be in uniform to use the military lanes. Simply show your valid military or veteran ID to the lane monitor for front-of-the-line service.
