Checkpoints and tips
RNO has one TSA checkpoint, on the first floor of the terminal. The airport says it opens an hour to 90 minutes before the first departing flight, typically around 4 a.m., though hours can change.
- The checkpoint uses Credential Authentication Technology, so a boarding pass may not be needed at the ID check. You will still need one at the gate.
- CT scanners are used for carry-on bags.
- The airport states that RNO does not offer CLEAR lanes or Global Entry enrollment, and that the TSA PreCheck enrollment center at the airport has permanently closed. Enroll at another location before you travel.
- Mail Safe Express boxes at the checkpoint let you mail back a prohibited item rather than give it up.
