The TSA has launched a real-time security wait time feature in its mobile app, using AI-powered cameras and checkpoint sensors to provide minute-by-minute estimates at all 440 US airports.
How It Works
- Real-time wait estimates updated every 60 seconds
- Historical averages by day and hour
- Push notifications when wait times spike
- Lane recommendations (PreCheck vs Standard vs Clear)
Early Results
Beta testing at 50 airports showed predictions were accurate within 3 minutes 90% of the time. The feature also shows the fastest checkpoint if an airport has multiple security areas.
Download the MyTSA app (free, iOS and Android) to access the feature. No TSA PreCheck enrollment required.
