Checkpoints and tips
Each concourse has its own TSA checkpoint at its entrance. The checkpoints open around 4 a.m. and close after the last departure of the night.
- Check which checkpoint serves your gate, because the two concourses are not connected after security.
- The airport's TSA page describes PreCheck lanes. Confirm lane availability and current hours on tsa.gov before you travel.
- Security waits are usually short, but they are busiest before 8 a.m. and from about 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
