FLY Act
HR 6565, the FLY Act, requires the TSA and FAA to create a system within 180 days that expedites gate access for caregivers. It directly affects parents, guardians, and caregivers who already have TSA Pre-Check status, allowing them to receive up to two expedited gate passes. The system ensures these passes display Pre-Check status similarly to regular boarding passes, enabling caregivers to accompany minors or travelers needing assistance directly to their flights. This change streamlines existing procedures without altering TSA Pre-Check eligibility or creating new access categories.
