"CLEAR's launch at San Diego International Airport provides passengers flying out of San Diego with access to an unstoppable travel experience," said San Diego County Supervisor Nora Vargas, who also serves on the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority Board. "This partnership reflects our commitment to continue offering travelers new and innovative ways to make their time at the airport as safe and seamless as possible."
Members use CLEAR's network of dedicated lanes to verify their identity with their eyes, replacing the need to take out their wallet and driver's license. After verification, a CLEAR Ambassador escorts members through the dedicated lane and directly to TSA physical security.

We're obsessed with making every experience faster, safer and easier, and we can't wait to help passengers in San Diego feel unstoppable on their journey," said CLEAR CEO Caryn Seidman-Becker.
Today's launch represents continued growth in CLEAR's footprint in California, where the company's expedited security lanes are available at eight airports: SAN, Palm Springs International Airport (PSP), Ontario International Airport (ONT), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Oakland International Airport (OAK), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC), and Sacramento International Airport (SMF).
"Not only does CLEAR significantly cut down security wait times for members, their technology uses traffic data and terminal walking times to tell you exactly when to leave your home to get to your gate in time," said Nathan Fletcher, Chair of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. "CLEAR's lanes are just one more example of San Diego Airport's commitment to innovation and putting passengers first."
"We are thrilled that CLEAR is now offering their touchless technology at SAN," said Kimberly Becker, President & CEO of San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. "We are always looking for new ways to enhance the customer experience and make travel as seamless as possible. This is a great addition to that commitment. Welcome to San Diego, CLEAR."
"In addition to improving the travel experience, CLEAR's presence at the airport generates a significant economic impact, bringing job opportunities and revenue to the County of San Diego," said Jerry Sanders, President & CEO of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce. "Our partnership with CLEAR is just one more reason why the San Diego region is the best place to live and work."
