just becasue you are chosen to opt-in does not necessarily mean you will get pre. No one can tell you if you have been accepted. You also may not get Pre every time as its a flight by by flight basis (i think its actually trip by trip) without a KTN/TTN.

Airline may determine who to allow to check the box to share info with TSA. Then TSA decides by whatever info WN sends to make the decision. I'm actually surprised opt-in is even being done. The word on the street is opt-in via airlines is going away when the $85 pay for pre/Global Entry light goes online. I also heard that Hawaiian airlines is doing the TTN/KTN field and no opt-in.

I dont think adding and removing the RR number will do anything. Its the secure flight info that is the key and RR number is not submitted to TSA
