When there are enough Airport Ambassador volunteers (Gold Coats), one is usually stationed at B security asking passengers if they have pre-check. However, there are times when there are no Ambassadors available for this duty. The airport certainly does not have any extra employees to do this (they can't even adequately staff the information desk).

Picking up a flight attendant friend at CLE tonight I noticed a sigh at the C security checkpoint
"Effective October 2, 2016 TSA will we opening an additional TSA pre lane at C checkpoint to help alleviate high TSA pre volume at CLE"
About freaking time if I say so myself....

Pre @ B still took 15 minutes. Was a shorter wait in ORD last week... Unacceptable (IMO) for an airport the size of CLE.

Can someone report back if/when this starts? I just went through security in CLE and did not see a sign for Pre at C (unless it was tiny). The regular line went all of the way past the UA counters to the Southwest area.

Fortunately or unfortunately it looks like I'm going to be grounded for October unless a last minute trip comes up soon.

Have no idea how relevant this is. I came in yesterday (Saturday) around 1:30 pm and noticed a pre check sign at the C entry--as far left as possible, where pre check has been, but almost at the id station. I was taking the escalator down to baggage claim, so I didn't see what signs might be out in the actual ticketing area where the signs to the entry to security usually are.
I'm hoping pre check will be permanently available at C. I'd hate to walk in from where the parking shuttles drop, past B, then to C and then have to turn back to B for pre check.

Also noticed that CLE has hung new signs above (perpendicular to) each airline's ticket counters so that you can see each airline's position down both sides of the terminal. (I"d post a pic, but have no idea how).

Pre-check at C was open today until 2:00 p.m. I can't seem to figure out a schedule. If you see the Pre-check sign posted at the entrance to the Priority/Premier line, then it is open.

I would rather AC just fly to YUL to open up more redemption options, they are flying jets (crjs)the whole 193 miles to yyz as of now (was on DH-1s for ages).

Just heard that C Pre-Check will only be open when B reaches capacity. So much for that 10 day "experiment."

Also, CLE has had direct EU service during the CO-era, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to think it would work again. Even PIT has a seasonal daily CDG flight...
