Travelers face unpredictable airport wait times as TSA officers go unpaid

Airports across the US are facing long lines at security checkpoints as Transportation Security Administration employees face their first week without full pay during a partial government shutdown that began last month.

Wait times at TSA checkpoints vary widely across airports as the agency’s staffing is tight. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the US, has seen wait times anywhere from up to two hours to 20 minutes depending on the time of day.

CNN is tracking TSA security wait times at 15 major airports across the United States, including those in Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas-Fort Worth and Denver. Look below to see wait times, or check out the story here.
