Friday at noon, wait times were about 20 minutes even though those two checkpoints were shut down. However, given today's situation, the airport is expecting longer lines and wait times as the day progresses.

The airport recommends giving yourself plenty of extra time and arriving at the airport at least two hours early for domestic flights and three hours early for international travel.
This comes as we are more than a month into a partial government shutdown that has thinned TSA staffing at airports across the country.
