Expedia and CLEAR help travelers get from booking to boarding  
with less friction 

Expedia® today announced a new partnership with CLEAR, the secure identity company, to bring CLEAR’s trusted airport experience to Expedia One Key® loyalty members. The partnership is designed to help travelers move through the airport with more ease by connecting trip planning and booking with day-of-travel services.  

Through Expedia, travelers can sign up for CLEAR+, which uses secure identity verification to help members move through CLEAR+ Lanes at more than 60 U.S. airports. Travelers can also access CLEAR Concierge, a premium service in which a dedicated CLEAR Ambassador provides personalized airport assistance from curb to gate. One Key members who sign up through Expedia will receive tier-based pricing and access.  

“Expedia helps you book with confidence and CLEAR helps you win the day of travel. Together, we’re connecting the journey so travelers can go from booking to boarding with less friction and more control,” said Caryn Seidman Becker, CEO of CLEAR.  

The partnership will be visible across key Expedia touchpoints, including discovery experiences, flight shopping, and trip management. Available first in the US, this partnership reflects Expedia’s broader strategy to support travelers across planning, booking, and day-of-travel moments in one connected experience.  

“Travelers do not think about booking and the airport as separate moments,” said Tracey Weber, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Expedia. “This partnership helps Expedia connect those experiences in a more useful way, giving travelers clearer choices before they leave home and more confidence once they get to the airport.”
