CLEAR Brings Fast-Track Screening to Indianapolis Airport

Indianapolis – October 11, 2026 -- Travelers at Indianapolis International Airport (IND) can now verify their identity in under five seconds with CLEAR, which launched its airport services there today.

eGates move CLEAR+ Members straight to physical screening

The new biometric eGates let CLEAR+ Members confirm who they are in under five seconds, then go directly to physical screening. CLEAR says this cuts wait times. IND is the company's newest market in the Midwest, and CLEAR is on track for a network-wide eGate rollout in 2026.

CLEAR Concierge escorts travelers from curb to gate

CLEAR Concierge also debuts at IND. The premium service gives travelers a personal escort from arrival, through security, to their gate. CLEAR describes it as designed for families, executives and frequent flyers.
