✈️ TSA SCALES BACK AIRPORT GATE ACCESS PROGRAM FROM OVER 300 AIRPORTS TO JUST 13: The Transportation Security Administration has reportedly halted the nationwide expansion of its new Gateside by TSA PreCheck program, limiting it to the original 13 airports. The program allows approved PreCheck members without boarding passes to pass through security to accompany departing travelers or greet arriving passengers at their gates, restoring access largely unavailable since the September 11, 2001, attacks. TSA says the program remains under evaluation but has not explained the sudden reversal or announced when expansion might resume.
