CLEAR said in its November 4 results that CLEAR+ launched at Tampa International Airport in early November. The airport’s earlier announcement described a contract covering lanes and automated gates at all four airsides. For a traveler leaving today, the more useful question is whether CLEAR lists a lane for the airside on the boarding pass, during the hours the traveler expects to reach security.
Read the live directory alongside the rollout plan
Start with the departure airside shown by your airline or the airport. Then look for the matching entry in CLEAR’s Tampa directory and check its operating hours. When checked on November 4, the directory listed a CLEAR+ lane for Terminal E from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. local time. The listing is a planning reference; check it again before travel, especially for late flights or after a gate change.
Check the lane and the screening option separately
CLEAR+ helps with the identity verification step at participating checkpoints. You still go through security screening. CLEAR’s directory lists CLEAR+ and TSA PreCheck options separately where shown, so check both your eligibility and what the location lists. Do not infer that having one automatically gives you the other.
Keep a fallback for your actual departure
Suppose your boarding pass shows Terminal E and you expect to reach security at 8:15 p.m. The listed CLEAR+ closing time of 8 p.m. would put your arrival outside that window. Plan for the regular checkpoint process and follow the airport and airline’s arrival guidance. If your airline changes the airside, repeat the check for the new location.
