KAYAK Partners with CLEAR to Help Travelers Get Through the Holidays (and Security lines)

New study from KAYAK reveals 70% of Americans planning to travel by flight this holiday season are stressed out about busy airports, flight delays or long lines

STAMFORD, Conn., Nov. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today is expected to be the busiest Thanksgiving travel day at airports across the country, according to KAYAK's search data, and with that comes the anxiety and stress of having to navigate crowded airports. In fact, a new study from KAYAK, the world's leading travel search engine, cites busy airports, flight delays and long lines as some of the top stressors for Americans traveling this holiday season.

To help make travel more enjoyable (and less stressful) this holiday season, KAYAK is teaming up with CLEAR to get you through airport security faster. For the first time, KAYAK users can take advantage of a free 3-month CLEAR^® Plus membership so you can get through the airport in a breeze.

"Flying over the holidays this year is going to be busy and expensive, so we wanted to make it as easy and affordable as possible for travelers to get to their final destinations," said Matt Clarke, VP of Marketing at KAYAK, North America. "By partnering with CLEAR, we hope to provide travelers with another tool that helps ease the stress that can come with navigating holiday travel plans."
