TSA Announces Holiday Travel Tips

Our goal is to get passengers through the checkpoint as quickly as possible while maintaining aviation security.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced that security checkpoints at more than 450 airports have coordinated staffing and are prepared to accommodate the busy holiday travel season. TSA created a public awareness effort, "SimpliFLY," to encourage travelers to take specific steps when packing bags to help get through security faster.

"Our goal is to get passengers through the checkpoint as quickly as possible while maintaining aviation security. The public can partner with us to accomplish this by coming prepared," said TSA Administrator Kip Hawley. The travel tips, video and security checkpoint wait times are available on www.tsa.gov
