2. I agree with others. If OP has a KTN and it is properly entered in each PNR and he is at 50%, there is something wrong and he is on some list. He may need to go through the redress process.
I do agree with you he may have to go through the redress system, but the reason I said it may be the airline's problem is due to the TSA blog, and this is what they state:
Entering your KTN to your frequent flyer profile will NOT automatically update previously booked reservations.
If you make reservations via a third-party website (not on the airlines’ website directly) and/or travel agency, your KTN may not always be shared with the airline. Also, some systems don’t allow you to enter a KTN and only have a “Redress” field. Do not enter your KTN in the redress field.
Even though you save your KTN in your frequent flyer profile, it will not associate your KTN with reservations automatically unless the KTN is supplied during the booking process.
Remember to always enter your KTN when booking your reservation, even when using your frequent flyer profile.
Lastly, if you make a change to a reservation, the airlines’ reservation system may, at times, remove your KTN.
TSA always recommends you contact your air carrier directly to add your KTN to your reservation, or use the tips below to ensure it is added correctly
We recommend that when in doubt, call your air carrier — or contact them via Twitter — to verify that your Secure Flight data matches. Verify that the airline has your first/middle/last name, gender and correct date of birth exactly as you applied for your KTN. Your individual reservation — not just your frequent flyer profile — must include your KTN. Incorrect name and/or date of birth information will not clear you to receive TSA Pre✓® expedited screening on that flight. This also will happen if you incorrectly enter your KTN or enter it in the redress field.
Some of the TSA Pre✓® participating airlines allow you to pull up your individual reservation, and verify your KTN is included. We recommend you check, just to be sure, and it only takes a few minutes of your time
