My wife and I are considering getting "pre-check" approved.
WIFE:
She visits her mom in AZ every 2 or 3 months; been doing this for a while. I think it makes sense for her to get approved, as she flys enough to make it worth her while.
ME:
I pretty much never fly. I hate commercial air travel. I'm not afraid to fly; the principle of flight is sound and does not scare me. Rather, I hate the potential inconveniences of long lines, delayed flights, missed flights, rude passengers, cramped seats, lost luggage, etc. I haven't flown in probably 15 years. I only have one upcoming trip where flight is worth the aggravation; a one-time trip to HI this year.
Questions:
Does it make sense for me to get pre-check approved if I only anticipate one trip in the foreseeable future?
Are there any downsides to me getting approved?
