Nothing new here except TSA having the guts to put it on the front page of their website. Rather than starting with "We recognize that some passengers" it should be "We deeply apologize and regret that some passengers," but that's a nit pick.

Still a lot of question as to if the "clearance" process does any good.

Also interesting that TSA recognizes the Privacy Act impilcations of this clearance process as indicated in the text ^ although they continue to fail to do so when an ETD alarms.

I jumped thru all the hoops and it is only a marginal improvement. Only helps on certain airlines, and then only if u are a frequent flyer with an ID on each airline.
