Is CLEAR at JNU?
No — Juneau (JNU) does not have a CLEAR lane right now. CLEAR operates at more than 60 U.S. airports, but JNU is not one of them, so a CLEAR Plus membership will not speed you up here. The lane that does cut your JNU wait is TSA PreCheck — here is how to use it, and how the three programs compare.
Is CLEAR at JNU right now?
No — there is no CLEAR lane at JNU today. CLEAR runs at 60-plus U.S. airports, and Juneauis not on that list, so a CLEAR Plus membership earns you nothing here. Don’t pay for it on JNU’s account alone. We update this page if CLEAR opens a lane at JNU — the current airport list is at clearme.com.
The nearest airports with a CLEAR lane
If you already carry CLEAR Plus — or you are deciding whether to — these are the closest airports to Juneau where the membership actually works:
| Airport | From JNU |
|---|---|
| CLEAR at SEA — Seattle, WA | 908 mi |
| CLEAR at PDX — Portland, OR | 1015 mi |
| CLEAR at BOI — Boise, ID | 1288 mi |
Straight-line distances. A CLEAR Plus membership works at every CLEAR airport, so it can still pay off if your trips route through one of these.
What gets you through JNU security faster instead
The lane that actually cuts your JNU wait is TSA PreCheck at JNU — the lighter screening where you keep your shoes, belt, and laptop packed. See how big the gap is on the live JNU TSA wait times board, where the standard wait is about 6 minutes and the PreCheck wait is about 2 minutes right now.
CLEAR, PreCheck, or Global Entry at JNU?
Three programs speed you up in different ways — and the first two stack. Here is the quick version:
| Program | Cost | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| TSA PreCheck | $76.75–$855 years | Most U.S. domestic flyers |
| Global Entry | $1205 years | International travelers (best value — it includes PreCheck) |
| CLEAR Plus | $209per year | Frequent flyers at CLEAR airports |

How CLEAR changes your Leave-By Time
A faster ID check only helps if it shortens the line you are actually in. Rather than guess, set your Leave-By Time: it folds the live JNU security wait, your drive with traffic, and the walk to your gate into one exact time to leave home — so you know when to leave today, not a rule of thumb.
Driving to JNU? Compare JNU airport parking and fold the lot and shuttle into the same Leave-By Time.

Common questions about CLEAR at JNU
Is CLEAR at JNU?

What gets me through JNU security faster instead?
TSA PreCheck is the one to get at JNU: it is the lighter screening lane where you keep your shoes, belt, and laptop packed. Check the live JNU wait to see the PreCheck-vs-standard gap before you leave.
Will CLEAR come to JNU?
CLEAR keeps adding airports, so JNU could get a lane later — but plan around what is there today. We update this page when CLEAR opens at JNU.
Is a CLEAR membership still useful if I fly through JNU?
Only if you also fly through CLEAR airports. A CLEAR Plus membership works network-wide, so it can still pay off if JNU is just one stop on trips that also touch CLEAR hubs.
