Once registered to complete enrollment bring one state approved ID to the enrollment center. You will need a valid, unamended US passport or passport card, US-issued Permanent Resident Card, a valid US driver's license, state-issued photo ID card, or a military ID. Once your identity is verified, they will scan your finger prints and get a picture of your iris.
This process takes about 5-7 minutes and can be done before a flight.
Costs:
Keep in mind Family add-on fee is just $50
You may also wish to peruse this thread in the Trusted Travelers forum: Is CLEAR worth $179 a year? (it goes beyond the question in the title, the answer to which is obviously "no" given the above pricing
)

GE sends email reminders about renewal, apparently at about six months and then again at about three months before expiration. It's apparently important to submit the renewal before your GE actually expires, even by one day.

The CLEAR site has a Delta-specific page:
https://clearme.com/delta/
unfortunately it's in that crappy style that's all the rage nowadays, where there a series of gigantic vertical pages with one sparse crumb of information per page but if you scroll all the way to the bottom there's a tiny "Clear + Delta FAQ's" link that uses an astonishing number of words simply to say "We have no useful information available to give you yet" over and over again.
The cached version of the site in the Google search results has one additional question in the FAQ:

Oddly, if you are also a Nexus member, not only can't your renew GE (why would you want to) but the system is smart enough to not send the email. For those unfamiliar, Nexus is the Canadian version of GE, and the systems are reciprocal.

NEXUS also allows GE use, as stated.

However, it can cost much more than $50 to go to/near Canada for the Nexus part of the interview and eyeball scan. If only it were possible to apply for Nexus, but use the GE benefits until you can complete the Canadian requirements for the full Nexus.

Having both is great but there is the added complication of getting to a CBP office for the interview at renewal time.

When I started my renewal I couldn't even get an interview in YYC until well after the date on the Nexus form but they said it's been renewed in the system and the rest can happen in course (extending after the expiration from the Nexus renewal form). I also found out that they can take renewals out of band as a walk-in if they are not overburdened at that time since it's a very short process. Other centers might be the same.

I didn't see the DL press release posted here yet. In it they state a plan to bring CLEAR to DL hubs.

If CLEAR comes to ATL I will reactivate my card for sure. Those Monday pre lines are out of control...

Delta + Clear partnership
Seems like Delta is partnering with Clear to get it's passengers around long TSA lines:
http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/06/aviati...es-ed-bastian/
https://www.clearme.com/delta/
This seems like a strange move. Is there any advantage for having Clear over PreCheck? Clear is $179 a year and all it does is jump you to the head of the standard line. Seems like PreCheck is a much better investment (anywhere from $50-100 for 5 years depending on how you sign up)...

, but it looks like they take you to the front of the PreCheck line. I guess if you live in one of the few cities that has it, it could be worth it. It is supposed to be complimentary for DM.

I've yet to wait for more than 5 mins in a PC line so it just seems of very limited utility compared to PC especially when you factor in cost. Seems like DL could get much better bang for their buck by partnering with the TSA and handing PC memberships like candy.

As others have said it appears as though Clear gets you to the front of any TSA Pre Check line, I suppose that could be an advantage to a business flyer whose business would pay without questioning. Clear also mentions being used at stadiums and other areas. MLB for sure, and I think the NHL are requiring screening for all fans. I could see more of a benefit for this to myself as I attend at least 10, and often 20+ major sporting events each year.
