Clear Registered Traveler

Clear lanes allows business travelers and other frequent fliers to pay a $99.95 fee to be prescreened by the Transportation Security Administration and receive a biometric identity card that provides them with expedited passage through airport security checkpoints.

Applicants start their membership at flyclear and complete the process in person at an enrollment station where their biometrics (fingerprints and iris images) are captured. JFK airport terminal with Clear lane is Terminal 7 and coming soon are Terminals 1 and 4.

All airlines that operate from the JFK airport and their customers will be able to take advantage of the 'Clear program'.

My niece ( Pamella Di Palma ) called me last monday morning,and she told me that she was getting on board to Naples,FL.
She should call me right after arriving there, and this not happened. I'm very worried.
Does anybody can help me?
Thanks

I am a greencard holder. I was treated very bad by immigration officers at JFK airport terminal 7. They were so rude and mean to me and they put wrong information on my customs form to let custom officer to stop me. I think it's illegal for goverment officer to write false information on goverment document. How can I complain about them? I am scared if they messed up my information on my data.

Some Americans forget their ancestors immigrated here too.
Not all of us native Americans are as ignorant as the victim-of-a-superiority-complex that left this message. And might I add, they are dying away. Children see children, not colored children. That all depends on the "nourishment" they received from their parents. Anyway, call your congressman. Ask them what you need to do.

good morning
i am a dual citizen, but my amarican passport just expired a few days ago. may i enter the u.s with my second passport? if not, what would i risk? a fee, being held up or even losing my u.s passport?

thank you for helping!

What other country are you a dual citizen of?
I'm a Spanish and American dual citizen and I went to Spain with my American passport and returned with my American passport, but I was told if you return with your "other country" passport you will need to present proof of being a citizen with that other country (whether it be the passport, the resident card, etc) I was also told by a family friend (who worked for Iberia) that the American government may stop you and tell you to choose between being American or "other country". I suggest you renew your American passport as soon as possible to avoid any problems at the airport. I also suggest if you are using your "other country" passport to only use it within the country/continent (IE: from Madrid to Rome, Madrid to Barcelona, etc) Also, when you go to renew your passport as them what they suggest.

I hope I was able to help you a bit, let me know any other information you may find out :)

Please let me know which terminal is assigned for visa waiver program what the checking procedures are and where and when (for e.g. before flying to the US or at the US airport upon arrival)I can get the green I94W form.

A friend of mine took a similar flight and she had to go through immigration at jfk. And 75 min is cutting it close, but the plane may actually wait for you, if you're late (unless you're badly held up), since they have info on you. If you're flying out from the same terminal, you should be fine.

Swiss arrives at JFK, from ZRH, (AA flight #65)@ 1:40pm Terminal 8
Departure to SFO (AA flight #85)@ 2:55pm Terminal 8
Do we pass through the immigration?
If yes, are 75minutes enough time?
Thanks for answer.

To masi: I' m taking the same flights on Sunday. Do you already know more about the stop in NY? So wether 75 min are enough to make it through the immigration or wether we do not have to pass through the immigration at JFK?
I really would appreciate an answer!

It does not take 5 hours. He may be being held up... This is tricky, I'd call the embassy to see if they've been contacted.

Hi, my friends and I are traveling from NY to Amsterdam, and I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what exactly we should have with us~ do we need certain things to leave US from NY and do we need certain forms to enter Amsterdam? I have been looking into this a lot but I would like to hear from someone who could tell me in more detail~ we already have passports, no visas bc its just a short trip, and I read that I dont need any immunizations for Netherlands but may want to go ahead and get yellow fever, but this is all i know so if i am missing something important.... PLEASE HELP! thanks so much!

You will need your passport. Before you land in Amsterdam the flight atendant will hand out cards for you to fill out, documenting what your travel plans are. You will hand that document and your passport to the immigration person. There is no reason, in my opinion, to get Yellow Fever vaccine. I went to Kenya and didn't need to get it. I think it would be a waste of money.

arrive at JFK from LAX (AA flight #40) @ 7:25pm
depart JFK to STN (AA flight #128) @ 9:45pm

what is required for security between these flights?

how far apart are the gates for these 2 flights

Anonymous

Hi, I don't think you have to go through security as both of your flights arrive and depart at Terminal 8. This will be different when you return from London as immigration is involved. Gate is not pre-determined but it will not take more than 15 minutes even if your arriving gate is in satellite and departing gate is at the main building. Have a safe trip!

I am taking a flight from London to JFK and land in terminal 7 at
