Does CLEAR allow you to avoid the full body scanner?

score:6

Accepted answer

CLEAR lets you go through a shorter line and skip the ID check using biometrics (the long security line is generally the line to the ID check, so skipping it can be a major time-saver). As their site shows, it does not make any difference to the actual TSA screening; you get sent to either PreCheck or normal lines depending on whether or not your ticket qualifies for PreCheck (i.e. you're a member, the airport has PreCheck, the airline participates in PreCheck, and you gave the airline your Known Traveler Number). As for whether it's worth it, that's a matter of personal preference.
