Checkpoints and tips

One central TSA checkpoint serves both the North and South concourses. Third-party wait-time sites list it as open daily from 4 a.m. to 11 p.m. TSA PreCheck runs at the main checkpoint from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m., and a CLEAR+ lane runs from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.

  • Guides report short waits, usually under 15 minutes. The busiest times are about 6 to 8:30 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m., when Southwest and commuter departures peak.
  • Confirm the current PreCheck and CLEAR hours on the airport website before you travel, because those windows are set by the operators and can change.
