Yeah, I totally see what you mean. It was, quite literally, a miracle that I got through security last Friday; I ran all the way down C concourse and only stopped to scan my BP, then kept running down the jetway. I've never seen SLC that bad. Serpentine through the security lines about 10 rows deep, and then all the way down the hallway, to the skycap/parking garage, and doubling back almost right to where the escalators come up from ticketing. I was terrified because, as I was afraid of, no PreCheck was printed on the agent-printed BPs. It still appears to be a problem. And since my final destination was YVR, the system wouldn't let me do an eBoarding Pass, so no precheck for me even though I know I should have had it. So thanks to that, I nearly had a heart attack.
And now I'm in ANC in the Board Room, thanks to PreCheck. I got it on my mobile BP, but I also asked the TA to print them out just so I could get some closure, and sure enough, my ANC-LAX BPs don't say anything about PreCheck. But I just scanned my phone, got the three beeps, and was on my way. I forgot to triple-check by printing the kiosk BPs, but I can add my voice to the many who have reported no PreCheck on ticket agent boarding passes. Boo.
