The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has quietly halted the expansion of its 'Gateside by TSA PreCheck' program, reverting to the original 13-airport pilot launched in September. The program, which allows trusted travelers without tickets to access secure gate areas, was recently rolled back at additional airports after a brief period of wider availability.
The Transportation Security Administration is allowing TSA PreCheck members to enter secure airport areas without a plane ticket at more than a dozen U.S. locations. This pilot program, known as Gateside by TSA PreCheck, permits trusted travelers to apply one to three days in advance to meet others at the gate or spend time during layovers.

The Transportation Security Administration has launched 'Gateside by TSA PreCheck,' a pilot program allowing eligible trusted travelers to enter secure airport areas without a flight ticket. The initiative, currently active at 13 U.S. airports, permits PreCheck members to visit gates, shops, and restaurants for reasons ranging from farewells to dining. Applications are free but require advance booking through a digital portal, marking a significant shift in post-9/11 airport access policies.
