I understand the "random" factor, but my experience has been excellent. Seems most people have had good luck as well once they got their name match issues resolved as well.

My point is that given the success rate I have had with PreCheck and the significant benefits it has over Clear, I don't see any value in paying for Clear - Even if I have to wait in the regular elite line a couple of times a year when the "randomness" kicks in.
