CBP Global Entry


Global Entry is a program developed by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to expedite entry into the U.S. for low-risk, pre-screened international travelers. Upon arrival in the U.S., members proceed directly to the automated Global Entry kiosk, bypassing passport control lines and paper customs declarations. After you're approved for Global Entry, you will also receive TSA Pre✓® as part of Global Entry.

The CBP PASSID, serves as your KTN. Please provide this number when booking a reservation on one of the 11 participating airlines including Delta Air Lines. KTNs are only active after an applicant complete enrollment at an application center for one of the four trusted traveler programs.

Add your KTN to reservations and loyalty program profiles. Add it on the Known Traveler Number Field in the forms. Do not enter your KTN in the redress number data field.

  1. Sign in to My Delta
  2. Go to your Profile
  3. Select “Edit” and enter under Known Traveler Number

Additional note: Verify that your first/middle/last name, gender and correct date of birth exactly as you applied for your KTN. Only enter your Membership Number / PASS ID in the ‘Known Traveler/Trusted Traveler’ field to ensure TSA Pre✓ eligibility.  Don’t type “Opt In” or “TSA Pre✓” or any other text.

If you have added the Known Traveler Number in your My Delta account, the number will get synced to your current reservation within 36-48 hours. If you add the Known Traveler Number in My Trips then it will automatically get updated in your current reservation.

If you make reservations via a third-party website (not on the airlines’ website directly) and/or travel agency, your KTN may not always be shared with the airline. Ensure your first/middle/last name is in the correct Secure Flight fields. The KTN will be submitted along with Secure Flight passenger data to TSA. Remember to enter your full name, date of birth and KTN exactly as you provided during the TSA PreCheck application process or when you enrolled in a CBP Trusted Traveler program.
