HOUSTON’S NEWS
MASSIVE TSA DELAYS IN HOUSTON. HOW BAD IS IT?
✈️ Travelers at Houston’s Bush Airport faced shocking security lines Monday, with waits topping four hours in some terminals. Officials warned that missed flights were possible as staffing shortages continue during the government shutdown.
With only two terminals open and many TSA workers absent, lines stretched through the airport. Some passengers missed flights, while others questioned the presence of federal agents assisting nearby. If you are flying soon, check with your airline early and give yourself extra time to get through security.
