Tired of long security lines? Adding your TSA PreCheck number (also known as your Known Traveler Number or KTN) to your American Airlines reservation is the key to breezing through security. Here's how:
**During Booking:** While booking your flight on the American Airlines website or app, look for the "Passenger Details" section. There, you'll find a field labeled "Known Traveler Number" or "TSA PreCheck." Enter your KTN carefully and accurately.
**After Booking (Manage Trip):** Already booked? No problem! Log into your American Airlines account and navigate to "Manage Trips." Find your reservation and look for an option to edit passenger information. Again, find the "Known Traveler Number" field and add your KTN.
**Important Notes:**
* **Accuracy is Key:** Double-check that you've entered your KTN correctly. Even a small mistake can prevent you from receiving PreCheck benefits.
* **Membership Must Be Active:** Ensure your TSA PreCheck membership is still active. You can check your expiration date on the TSA website.
* **Confirmation:** After adding your KTN, you should see a TSA PreCheck indicator on your boarding pass.
By following these simple steps, you can enjoy the benefits of TSA PreCheck and spend less time waiting in line!
