Fast Track Lanes and Locations

The airport does not currently offer any fast track lanes for expedited security screening. However, TSA PreCheck is available for eligible passengers, which allows them to use dedicated screening lanes and keep on their shoes, belts, and light jackets, as well as leave laptops and liquids in their carry-on bags.

Passport & Immigration Control Locations

SUX does not have any international flights, so there are no passport or immigration control locations within the airport. However, passengers traveling on domestic flights are still required to present valid government-issued photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport, at the security checkpoint.

TSA and TSA Pre Checkpoints

Sioux Gateway Airport has TSA and TSA Pre Checkpoints to ensure the safety and security of all passengers. TSA Pre Check is a program that allows expedited screening for eligible passengers, which means they can keep on their shoes, belts, and light jackets, and leave laptops and liquids in their carry-on bags. To be eligible for TSA Pre Check, passengers must apply and be approved through the TSA Pre Check program.
