Yeah, I saw that (about attempting to use a TWIC card) and was also skeptical that it’s universally acceptable.

Like trying to use a GOES card (issued by US Customs) as an ID at a bank to cash a check.

I get that Homeland Security is purportedly a government entity, but try negotiating about a TWIC card to a local TSA miscreant with a badge & gun at the Minot Airport when your flight is boarding.

The irony is that TSA is actually part of the Department of Homeland Security.

I think you have to put your TWIC number in as your Known Traveler Number when you book your flights.
