I’m arriving at TBIT on T’giving Wed morning on the VA flight from SYD scheduled in at 605, connecting to the DL DCA flight at 820.
I have GE, PRECHEK, and Clear and am flying D1 and will be carrying on my bag and sitting in 1A on the VA flight. Not really worried about making the connection. But avoiding TSA craziness keeps me saner and I’m guessing that even with Clear and Prechek, T2 TSA will be crazy that morning.
Thoughts from those with more experience — does it make sense for me to use the transit security, even though it will be Prechek light and then walk the length of TBIT to the bus for T2?
Also, I have Priority Pass so can access the VS club or the Sky Club in T2. Recommendations? I know this has only been an option for the last few days, but has anyone used the Clubhouse since it became available in mornings for PP.
Thanks. Happy T’giving.

Just stick to CLEAR (in either terminal 2 or 3), all things considered its probably the only line that will be a <15 min wait (when you factor in the escalator upto security as well)
As far as D1 at LAX goes, given the new area is still being built (I believe) they're still using kiosks similar to SP. So yeah, other than to drop some bags there isn't much of a point atm
In regards to clubs, I've said this a million times already and I'll say it again --@loungebuddy is an absolutely indispensable app for me. It just is perfect for cases like these and will have all the lounges, with pictures, and their access policies laid out for you.
I don't think you can get into the SCs though with priority pass. Though this isn't much of a loss. Given how the lounges still are a WIP despite being open (especially T3), you really won't be missing out on much.
So with that said, the VS club probably would be your best bet and is imo at least for now a better club anyway.
Happy travels!
