TSA Wait Times helps you plan smarter airport departures with security wait estimates, source and confidence labels, favorites, reminders, and a personal flight planner. WAIT ESTIMATES WITH SOURCE LABELS Search US airports by city, code, or name. Each result shows Standard and TSA PreCheck estimates, terminal-level breakdowns where available, source quality, confidence, and when the estimate was updated. ATL, BOS, BWI, CHS, CLE, CLT, CMH, CVG, DCA, DFW, DTW, ELP, EWR, GSP, HOU, IAH, JAX, JFK, LAS, LEX, LGA, MCO, MIA, MSP, ORD, PDX, PHL, PHX, PIT, PSP, SEA, SFO, SLC, and TUL include airport-published checkpoint data, with additional airports falling back to source-labeled planning estimates. FLIGHT PLANNER Enter your flight time, drive time, expected TSA wait, and extra buffer. The app calculates when to leave and breaks down the plan minute by minute. If you have already checked an airport's wait estimate, the planner can use that value automatically. FAVORITES Save your most-used airports for quick access. WAIT HISTORY Lookups are saved locally so you can review past estimates. You can also log your actual wait time to compare the estimate against your own experience. REMINDERS Schedule a notification before your calculated leave time so you remember to check conditions again before heading to the airport. TRANSPARENT DATA Version 2.0 separates wait times from their source. Estimates may be airport-published, historical, or modeled. The app avoids presenting modeled estimates as live TSA data. Always verify with TSA, MyTSA, your airline, or the airport before travel.
