The TSA is really working hard to keep us safe and secure when traveling… I checked around just now because of rumors of a security breech at Laguardia Airport in the Delta terminal, and found my way to the Transportation Security Administration’s “security checkpoint wait times” site. They’re so tightly wired, they’re warning about delays for the Fourth of July weekend. Now that’s thinking ahead.

TSA | Transportation Security Administration | Wait Times

Due to the increased passenger traffic expected at airports over the Fourth of July holiday weekend, you may encounter wait times at the security checkpoints that are longer than historic averages. We expect that passenger traffic will be particularly heavy on July 1, July 2, and July 5 and recommend that you plan accordingly. The employees of TSA wish you a happy holiday and remind you to check the prohibited items list at www.tsa.gov prior to arriving at the airport.
