In part for kicks, I decided to take a bunch of huge apples — most bigger than cellphones of sort — inside my carry-on with a whole bunch of electronics and related stuff for my flight yesterday as a PreCheck passenger using a dedicated PreCheck screening checkpoint. There was no extra inspection of my carry-ons and I didn’t remove the food. In other parts of the world and even at the regular TSA screening line or at the TSA checkpoints where there is “PreCheck light”, this “mix” would generally mean that the bag is not getting cleared so fast and easily as with the regular PreCheck screening.
