TSA had told me the 28th. Airport website says the 31st. But it was definitely up and running yesterday. Just now working for DL passengers.

Nashville up and running. ONLY downside is walking the 100 yards to the American/Southwest side of security.
Not complaining....is a great day when you can walk through the front door and be through security in three minutes!

Despite the airport website saying Pre-Check would start at RDU on the 31st, it is staffed and up and running.
Only problem is no one from DL is getting the 3 magic beeps. They had some people standing around pointing fingers as to why no one from DL was getting through.
Hopefully this "bug" will be worked out soon. I hate to see all the TSA agents standing around with nothing to do!

I can only assume that you have been lucky, as the TSA website says:
Q. Can passengers access TSA Pre✓ for international travel?
A. No. At this time, TSA Pre✓ is only available for passengers traveling domestically on participating airlines. If any leg of an itinerary is international, the passenger will not qualify for TSA Pre✓ for that itinerary and will go through traditional screening.
Can anyone else confirm that they have been able to use Pre-check for international travel, perhaps from a different airport than DEN?

I was able to use Pre√ before a BOS-ATL flight that was part of an international itinerary but I had completed all the international segments and had a stopover in Boston.

I am now 0 for 12 with TSA Pre and i dont know why this isnt working for me. I got my trusted traveller number by signing up for Global Entry. My GE card is activated and i entered my trusted traveler number in my Delta profile two months ago. Since then I tried TSA Pre twelve times but have yet to be cleared once. I asked TSA and Delta what could be the reason for tis but nobody has any answers.
What do i do or who do i contact to see if everything is setup correctly ?

Open at AUS
Sooooo happy. Best part is that SWA doesn't participate in PreCheck, so their "buy your way into the Elite line for $40" doesn't clog Pre.

Click "Details" for an upcoming trip where the departure time is greater than 72 hours from now (for example, next week or beyond).
Under "PASSENGERS" click on "> Passenger Information".
Compare the "Secure Flight Passenger Data" section of your reservation with your Global Entry profile as shown on the government's GOES web site. Does your first, middle and last name shown here in Secure Flight Passenger Data exactly match the way they are spelled on the GOES web site? Does your date of birth match? Is your Known Traveler Number exactly the same as your PASSID as shown on GOES?

Logon to DL.com. List your upcoming trips.

Called Delta online support and had them change it.I hope this will fix it.
Odd thing is that my boarding passes always print Last Name/FirstMiddle
all spelled out.

My middle name mysteriously vanished during the IT upgrade which cause me to miss out on some prechecks. Fixed now but on the booking page my middle name appears TWICE with different capitalization. Ticket and boarding pass are fine though and I'm once again flying thru Pre.

TSA Pre uses "Secure Flight Passenger Data". Check every upcoming flight reservation and make sure your info in each reservations matches your GOES profile, and your precheck success rate should approach 100%.

From experience, I don't think Middle matters. I don't use my middle name on DL.com (or my suffix) and I still get cleared ~90% of the time. Then again, I'm also not part of GE so maybe that's why it doesn't matter.
