The TSA has screened over 2 million travelers daily at airport security checkpoints for eight straight days as many people travel for the winter holidays.
The TSA predicted that holiday air travel volumes would be "close to pre-pandemic levels."Travelers wheel the bags past the line for TSA screening in Terminal B at Logan International Airport, Mon., Nov. 21, 2022, in Boston. Travel experts say the ability of many people to work remotely is letting them take off early for Thanksgiving or rs.
"Fully wrapped gifts may need to be opened if deemed necessary by a TSA officer. Instead, consider placing your unwrapped gifts in your checked bag," TSA said. The agency added: "At many airport checkpoints, the Transportation Security Officer may ask you to insert your physical ID into one of our new Credential Authentication Technology units. Residents of Arizona, Colorado and Maryland may even use their Apple mobile device to store their ID in Apple Wallet and use their mobile device in certain TSA PreCheck lanes at participating airports."
