My wife and I have gotten Pre-Check most of the time, without being enrolled in any Trusted Traveler programs. I've seen people on FT say that the practice is being scaled down, that it was to give travelers a taste of Pre-Check to encourage them to sign up with the program. I haven't seen any TSA statements on it, so is it true? Right now I'd think we get Pre-Check enough that we don't need to sign up for anything, and it would be advisable to have it publicized if it won't continue this way.
