Reading Time: 2 minutes

CLEAR expands to Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye Airport with new security lanes, enhancing travel efficiency and creating jobs, benefiting local economy and passengers.

CLEAR (NYSE: YOU), a leading provider of secure identity solutions, introduced its flagship identity verification technology at Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) today. This initiative aims to enhance the security screening process at the airport. The introduction of CLEAR’s technology at HNL is projected to create 64 new jobs and bring an estimated $3.6 million in annual economic benefits to the local community. Earlier in April, CLEAR also implemented its security screening lanes at Maui’s Kahului Airport (OGG) and announced a partnership with Hawaiian Airlines to simplify travel for passengers. Collectively, CLEAR’s presence at both HNL and OGG is expected to generate around 100 jobs and contribute approximately $6 million annually to the local economy.

Today’s launch marks another milestone in CLEAR’s expanding national presence, now serving 58 airports with its opt-in CLEAR Plus membership, catering to over 22 million Members. CLEAR Members enjoy the convenience of dedicated lanes where they can verify their identity seamlessly and securely using their eyes or fingerprints, eliminating the need for wallets and driver’s licenses. Following verification, a CLEAR Ambassador guides Members through the dedicated lane directly to TSA physical security, significantly reducing wait times at security checkpoints.

“CLEAR is excited to add Honolulu to its list of airport partners, joining Maui in bringing seamless, reliable travel experiences to passengers across the islands. We look forward to this partnership and the jobs and positive economic impact it will bring to the community,” said CLEAR CEO Caryn Seidman Becker.

“We are pleased to offer frequent travelers at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport another option to make security screening faster and more convenient,” said Ed Sniffen, director of the Hawaii Department of Transportation. “The addition of CLEAR at Kahului Airport earlier this year has been well received by travelers departing from Maui, and now travelers at HNL will also have the opportunity to utilize this service.”

Through its recently announced partnership with Hawaiian Airlines, CLEAR offers HawaiianMiles members a discounted rate on CLEAR Plus membership. This preferential pricing allows HawaiianMiles members to expedite their security process at HNL, OGG, and 56 other airports nationwide. Additionally, partner pricing is available for members of Alaska Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and American Express.

CLEAR Plus members can add up to three family members or friends to their account for $99 each, with family members under 18 always joining for free in the CLEAR Lane. Beyond airports, CLEAR members can verify their identity seamlessly and at no cost in various scenarios, such as checking into hotels, visiting doctors, renting cars, or attending sports events.
