On a side note, I really like the new function in the App that shows if your TSAPre is attached. It's under Manage Trips and then click on a flight. It shows it right next to your RR number.

I have four scheduled flights at the moment (as a companion), but only one of the four displays both passengers like the image posted above. Oddly, that one is an international flight, and it shows the primary passenger as having pre-check, but not the companion (me). Of course, neither of us will actually have pre-check on our boarding pass for that flight.

All 6 flights we have show Pre Check on the app. Not sure if they were set before I called to add my middle name.

I signed up for PreCheck in late December 2015 and added my KTN to my various profiles on December 31, 2015, to include Southwest's profile. I got an Invitation opt-in email about two months later saying I am welcome to use PreCheck and could get a KTN by visiting an enrollment center.... which I did two months earlier. However, I noticed my online Southwest profile now had the option to opt-in or opt-out of PreCheck.
My wife added her KTN to her account maybe two weeks ago. She currently does not have the opt-in/out choice yet on Southwest. She has no middle name, so Southwest profile has a blank spot and of course her KTN profile has "NMN". I wonder if I need to have Southwest add NMN to her Middle name field. Thoughts??
