TSA PreCheck Travel Industry Partnership Request for Information

1. DESCRIPTION Background: The TSA TTC Office is requesting information and conducting market research to understand the level of interest from industry, particularly travel industry partners such as airlines and other travel-related companies, in partnering with TSA to increase TSA PreCheck enrollments.
