Departing FAI

I haven't flown out of FAI in years and have an upcoming flight that departs FAI to SEA early (6am) on a summer Sunday morning. How is FAI at this time, and would Precheck work properly (i.e. have a dedicated lane) at FAI?

Thank you for your reports.

pre-check is of the variety where you get to leave your shoes and jacket on, but still have to remove laptop and liquids. I never depart that early, so don't know about lines, but I find the FAI TSA agents to be some of the slowest and most "thorough" in the US.

FAI is generally pretty easy, but TSA there is thorough.

I’ve shown up there at 0500 for a 0600 flight and been fine.
