Question TSA PreCheck Frequency
I was recently really excited to find out that I became eligible for PreCheck when I first did this in Seattle a couple of months ago... Since then, I've only gotten PreCheck maybe 2 times out of 10 screenings. Is this your experience too?

Does not having your middle name listed on reservation (I usually just put First Last only) affect your chances of becoming eligible? What factors affect your chances?

Thanks!

What was the basis of your eligibility? Remember that you have to include whatever that basis is (frequent flier number or PASSID for GE or NEXUS) in your reservation.

The name on your reservation must be exactly the same as the one in your Trusted Traveler profile.

I'm 100% over about 20 screenings.
