I have never tried this and have actually had my id denied at one checkpoint. My question is, has anyone out there had experience with this or does anyone have any knowledge of this as a common procedure? The airport I fly out of typically is O`hare.
I know a federal employee, based at ORD, who claims to do this. He says he uses a special line (apparently for crew only) and shows his PIV card to the screeners.
