Precheck: the expedited TSA security - shoes on (moot now), laptops in etc
Clear: Private cut-the queue business, but only till the TSA boarding pass scanner
Reserve by Clear: Separate reserve-your-security-queue-spot for free service at a few places, including at JFK T4. Managed by Clear. Everyone seems to be clueless about it, I just go to the signposted spot and wave my arms..someone comes over, has no clue what I have booked, takes me direct to the TSA boarding pass scanner.

Pretty sure GE comes with Pre for all travel- there’s no difference in the TSA process for domestic or international travel. I’m ineligible for Pre, hoping that the age comes through sooner rather than later..
