To clarify common misconceptions:

  1. Shortcut Security vs. Shortcut Boarding:- The correct term is Shortcut Security, which enhances the security screening process, not Shortcut Boarding.
  2. TSA Pre-Check:- This is a separate program offered by Spirit Airlines and should not be confused with Shortcut Security.
  3. Purchase Requirement:- Passengers must buy Shortcut Security separately; it is not included with standard ticket purchases.
