Yesterday I flew out of SEA.
Regular TSA lane, Clear lane and Pre lane.
Clear pax were taken to the podium and 'bumped' ahead of the 'Pre' pax - and everyone I saw from where I was in the regular lane was sent through the Pre xray/WMD.
I thought Clear and Pre were two separate programs and Clear did not guarantee the Pre experience. From what I saw, unlike the old elite line set-up in the south end of the terminal, there's no obvious way to funnel a non-Pre Clear person through the xray/WMD without ducking under barriers.
