“I fly a lot for business, sometimes globally.

1. Get pre-check
2. Understand what clothing and accessories set off even the pre-check body scans (had to STOP wearing my fave cowboy boots)
3. Get Global Entry (45 seconds to clear US customs, yep, really)
4. Enroll in CLEAR.
5. Don’t be a noob - observe the process — be a grey man in the line.

Following those 5 rules, the TSA/ Customs is never an issue for me. Ever.”

Being serious for a moment, those are exactly the same things I do. “Be a gray man.” Works great. Also works great if you’re a CCW, believe me.

What does a CCW have to do with TSA check ins?

Global Entry includes TSA PreCheck.
