Clear is a weird service that's more of a "line cutting" service but doesn't get you out of whatever group (Pre or Not Pre) you're actually in. For example, in my airport, there is almost no one who uses Clear, so I when I use it, the literally escort you up to the front of the line of the non-Pre Check line because I don't have TSA Pre. If you have TSA Pre (either randomly assigned or through Global Entry), then you would go to the front of that line.
Be sure to check locations, and not just which airports have it, but which terminals at those airports have it. We have 7 flights coming up soon (all departing from different airports) and this service would only be available for one flight.

It seems to be mostly at airports that funnel everyone through just one or two security checkpoints. Part of the issue may be that I tend to avoid those.
If you don't spend enough time in airports to know, then it's likely not worth it. I have it and it's maybe 10 seconds to 2 minutes saved over the standard pre-check line.

Nice. I wonder if it'll show up on the platinum cards. Anyone figure how to optimize this deal? Amex platinum offers $180-90 as credit.

If you use your card to make the purchase on their website, it doesn't matter if it's for you, someone else, or if you're just buying Clear merchandise (if it exists). It's just half back on whatever you spend.

Yes. You can save time. Exactly 4 minutes at every airport.

I might enroll and try it out if it is free, but I'm not paying for this service since I already have Global Entry, which lets me use the pre-TSA line.

It's 100% worth it if you fly out of big city airports ala sfo or lax. You most definitely aren't just saving a couple minutes skipping those lines .
