Some airport gates will be open again to people who don't have plane tickets. The program is called Gateside by TSA Precheck and it revives a tradition that went away after 9-11. Eligible TSA Precheck members without plane tickets can pass through security and enter the gates. It gives people some extra time to see a friend or loved one before their flight takes off. It's free but people must apply online one to three days before their planned visit and receive approval. The program is available for now at 13 airports including Los Angeles International, Dallas Fort Worth International, Harry Reed International in Las Vegas, and Salt Lake City International Airport.
