Southwest Airlines Is Offering Points To TSA Precheck Customers For More Than 10 Minutes

For security check, nobody wants to stand or wait in line, but Southwest is offering special deal to its customers. The airline is offering compensation and points to TSA Precheck customers on wait for 10 minutes at least at one airport. The airline announced this new offer Monday that rewards any TSA Precheck passengers at Oakland International Airport who wait in line for more than 10 minutes. The airline is offering them an extra 2,500 Rapid Reward points. It’s unclear how many passengers Southwest will actually end up handing points over to. According to the TSA Precheck website, in April 2018, 92 % of flying passengers who have TSA Precheck waited less than 5 minutes in line. The TSA Precheck site also says “you can speed through security and don’t need to remove your shoes, laptops, liquids, belts and light jackets.”
