You can add TSA PreCheck to your American Airlines reservation during the booking process, in your AAdvantage profile, or at the airport check-in.
When booking a flight online, look for the TSA PreCheck option in the passenger details section. Ensure you enter your Known Traveler Number (KTN) correctly.
If you’ve already booked your flight, log into your AAdvantage account. Navigate to your upcoming trips and select the flight you want to modify. There, you can add your KTN to your reservation.
If you’re at the airport and haven’t added TSA PreCheck yet, you can do this at the check-in kiosk. Just follow the prompts, and be sure to have your KTN handy.
Remember to check that your TSA PreCheck status is showing on your boarding pass. This ensures you can enjoy the expedited security process.
Always keep your information updated in your AAdvantage profile to avoid any hassle for future flights.

Can I add TSA PreCheck after booking my flight?
Yes, you can add TSA PreCheck after booking. Use your AAdvantage account to update your reservation or do so at the airport check-in.
What if my boarding pass doesn’t show TSA PreCheck?

Is there a fee to add TSA PreCheck?
No, adding your TSA PreCheck is free once you have your KTN. There are fees associated only with enrolling in the program.
Does TSA PreCheck work for international flights?
