TSA Wait Times Analysis: 99% PreCheck Passengers Wait Under 10 Minutes

As a partial government shutdown continues, TSA wait times at major U.S. airports remain long, affecting travel plans. The TSA reports that approximately 20 million passengers utilize the TSA PreCheck program, which allows 99% of its members to wait less than 10 minutes during normal operations. Travelers are advised to arrive two hours before domestic flights and three hours before international flights due to potential delays from the shutdown. This situation may impact airline operations and overall travel demand.
