Checkpoints and tips

The TSA checkpoint opens about 90 minutes before the first departure of the day and closes after the last flight. The airport recommends arriving at least 2 hours before your flight. TSA PreCheck lanes are available, and CLEAR is located near the checkpoint.

  • The airport lists average security waits of about 8 minutes, and its hourly table shows waits between 3 and 8 minutes during the day.
  • The landside terminal is open 24 hours and is monitored by security, but the checkpoints and restaurants close overnight. Plan to wait in the pre-security lobby until screening opens.
  • Liquids must follow the 3-1-1 rule, with containers of 3.4 ounces or less in one quart-sized bag.
