With CLEAR+ Lanes, automated eGates, and CLEAR Concierge, the launch helps XNA keep pace with growing demand while making travel more predictable from home to gate.
As part of the launch, CLEAR is bringing its biometric eGates to XNA, allowing CLEAR+ Members to verify their identity in under five seconds and proceed directly to physical screening. CLEAR is on track for a network-wide eGate rollout in 2026.
CLEAR Concierge, which is also launching at XNA, is a premium curb-to-gate service that provides travelers with a personal escort from arrival through security and directly to their gate. Designed for families, executives, and frequent flyers alike, CLEAR Concierge transforms stressful travel days into seamless, fully guided experiences.
"As one of the fastest-growing regions in the country, travelers deserve an experience that moves at their pace," said Caryn Seidman Becker, CEO of CLEAR. "At XNA, we're building the home-to-gate journey with CLEAR+ Lanes, automated biometric eGates, our beloved Ambassadors, and CLEAR Concierge — to give Members a seamless, stress-free travel day they can enjoy."
CLEAR's expansion at XNA supports the region's growth and job creation, and is expected to generate positive economic impact for XNA annually.
"Bringing CLEAR to XNA is another step in making the passenger experience more convenient for the growing number of people choosing to fly from Northwest Arkansas," said Aaron Burkes, CEO of XNA. "As our region continues to grow, we remain focused on adding services that help travelers move through the airport with ease and confidence."
CLEAR's investment in new technology and product innovation reinforces the company's commitment to improving security and the traveler experience, and today's launch builds on CLEAR's continued national growth. CLEAR now serves more than 8.2 million Active CLEAR+ Members at 61 airports, and more than 41 million Total CLEAR Members across its secure identity platform.
