How-To Apply

STEP 1 | Apply Online

  • Experience CAE Guest Passes can be requested up to 14 days in advance, or on the same day of your visit. Please allow a minimum of one hour for processing and approval.
  • If you cannot select a date or time on the online form, that means there is no availability for that date and time.

    When applying, there are two options for ID Verification – REAL ID or Passport – you will scan your TSA-approved ID using a camera to provide that information. YOU WILL NEED TO SCAN BOTH SIDES OF THE ID FOR THE APPLICATION TO BE SUCCESSFUL. Accurate registration details (name, birthdate, gender) must match the ID presented during check-in. Discrepancies will result in TSA denial.

  • Once submitted, you will receive an email confirmation verifying that your request has been received.
PLEASE NOTE: Experience CAE Guest Pass access is approved only for personal use; commercial or professional use is prohibited. The Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE) and/or the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) may deny or revoke access at any time in its sole discretion.
