Yep — even though San Francisco uses private security (Covenant Aviation Security, not TSA), they still have PreCheck lanes. Same program, same benefits, usually a much shorter wait.
CBP tracks immigration wait times across 2 terminals at San Francisco. If you're a US citizen, expect a shorter line; non-US citizens typically wait longer. Global Entry members can skip the line entirely and use the automated kiosks. One thing to know: CBP data runs about 2-3 days behind, so the numbers here are based on recent patterns rather than a live feed.
