MAJOR TSA changes are coming to hubs like JFK in New York and LAX in Los Angeles, with the expansion planned by Spring 2026. The upgrade is called TSA PreCheck Touchless ID. Who can use TSA PreCheck Touchless ID? TSA also says the program is voluntary, and travelers can opt out and use a standard ID check instead. And if you don’t want your face scanned, TSA says you can opt out by telling staff, “I’d prefer a standard ID check.”
