If you recently used Clear at an airport and felt like things went a lot quicker, you're probably not imagining it. As of this week, Clear has brought quicker, automated "e-gates" to 37 airports across the country.
It's a more streamlined setup compared to its legacy kiosks — and it's a notable upgrade to a service meant to expedite passengers' trips through Transportation Security Administration checkpoints.
On plenty of occasions in the past, for instance, I've run into backlogs getting to the kiosks, especially if Clear staffers were tied up helping other passengers — most often at major hubs that a lot of other Clear members fly from.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
