TSA Pre at JFK while using KE
I am a global entry member and using KoreanAir frequently when fly to Korea,
I knew as there is TSA Precheck lane at Terminal 1 in JFK Airport,
But, TSA Webstie listed the airport and airline,
Is there any benefit for TSA PreCheck ?
or experience ?

KE is a new member to TSA PreCheck but it has been a few weeks so the system should be operating. PreCheck at JFK Terminal 1 seems to be PreCheck Lite where you go through the same line/wait but get to keep your shoes & belt on for the metal detector unless "randomly selected" for the scanner.
TSA pre check at JFK T1 Has some comments. The info about KE not participating is out of date since the end of October. This may vary depending on which flight to ICN you'll be on.

I just did JFK-ICN. I added the KTN w/ KoreanAir via chat support the day before the flight. There wasn't a separate line for the precheck, but I didn't have to take my shoes off or go through the scanner but just the metal detector. The line was still kinda long.
