At 6:15 p.m., we received another photo showing the line looking similar to how it had a few hours earlier.
On Friday, the Houston Airports System alerted travelers to arrive early and prepare for long wait times at Bush Intercontinental Airport as the only TSA checkpoints open will be at Terminal A and Terminal E.
On Sunday, Bush Intercontinental Airport said that TSA screen lines may exceed three hours.
Heads up, travelers! TSA wait times may exceed 60 minutes. Arriving early gives you time to park, check your bags, and get through security.
We appreciate your patience as our federal partners work to keep everyone safe. pic.twitter.com/8ALsElUTtR
