Fly thru Airport Security with no waiting with Flyclear.com

My flight out of JFK left at 8:30am so I got there at 7am like a good traveler. Didn't want to get stuck in airport security. Its always such a dice roll....get there early and have to wait and wait until your plane arrives, or cut it close only to risk a run for the gate if airport security is too backed up. This trip the airport security line was pretty short so I had plenty of time to wait for my flight. And I noticed something new, a separate - completely empty - security line with a big blue cube that said CLEAR. I investigated further at flyclear.com when I got home.

So here's the deal - you sign up for Fly Clear and you get to skip the security check like a rock star. Strictly front of the line service. You'll get to submit an application, and then go in person to get your fingerprints done and a eye scan (it feels so Bond) and you're new clear card and you're all set. So far they are set up at twenty airports across the country including the big airports like San Francisco, Dulles and JFK. Currently LAX is in the works, here's a complete list of the flyclear.com serviced airports.
