Is CLEAR at LBB?
No — Lubbock (LBB) does not have a CLEAR lane right now. CLEAR operates at more than 60 U.S. airports, but LBB is not one of them, so a CLEAR Plus membership will not speed you up here. The lane that does cut your LBB wait is TSA PreCheck — here is how to use it, and how the three programs compare.
Is CLEAR at LBB right now?
No — there is no CLEAR lane at LBB today. CLEAR runs at 60-plus U.S. airports, and Lubbockis not on that list, so a CLEAR Plus membership earns you nothing here. Don’t pay for it on LBB’s account alone. We update this page if CLEAR opens a lane at LBB — 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 Lubbock where the membership actually works:
| Airport | From LBB |
|---|---|
| CLEAR at OKC — Oklahoma City, OK | 268 mi |
| CLEAR at DFW — Dallas, TX | 281 mi |
| CLEAR at DAL — Dallas, TX | 293 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 LBB security faster instead
The lane that actually cuts your LBB wait is TSA PreCheck at LBB — the lighter screening where you keep your shoes, belt, and laptop packed. See how big the gap is on the live LBB TSA wait times board, where the standard wait is about 14 minutes and the PreCheck wait is about 5 minutes right now.
CLEAR, PreCheck, or Global Entry at LBB?
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 LBB 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.

Will CLEAR come to LBB?
CLEAR keeps adding airports, so LBB could get a lane later — but plan around what is there today. We update this page when CLEAR opens at LBB.
Is a CLEAR membership still useful if I fly through LBB?
Only if you also fly through CLEAR airports. A CLEAR Plus membership works network-wide, so it can still pay off if LBB is just one stop on trips that also touch CLEAR hubs.
