Kennedy International Airport in New York, thus becoming one of the first "registered travelers." The registered-traveler program is based on a set of standards, issued by the U.S. government, that's meant to speed "safe" passengers through airport security checks. Launched in 2005 and implemented by private contractors, it's designed to help airports improve efficiency by separating trusted travelers from the unknown. Clear opened the first dedicated registered-traveler lane at Orlando International Airport in 2005, and four more have followed. A whole nation's worth, of course, is planned.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/26936AB2-776F-4462-8EF5-49C4A6CC4EEB/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
