American Airlines is joining the biometric screening party.
The Fort Worth-based airline said AAdvantage members will soon have access to streamlined security through a partnership with the Transportation Security Administration.
The airline didn't reveal which airports will get access to the faster screening process at checkpoints through TSA PreCheck Touchless ID, saying only that it will roll out to select locations "in the months ahead."
American didn't reveal the program's full details, but it is expected to work similarly to the way Delta Air Lines and United Airlines operate biometric screening at select airports. At Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), for example, Delta operates a biometric screening lane that is often the fastest way through security.
