Government Shutdown…
America’s busiest airport, Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International, and airports all over the United States are warning passengers to arrive extra early for their flight.
Because of the government shutdown, airports are advising travelers that it might take three hours or more to clear TSA security. There have been nationwide reports of TSA agents calling in sick and some U.S. airports have even closed terminals because of the shutdown.
Pack your patience and some compassion. Airports around the country feel the shutdown pinch as TSA callouts cause growing lines: https://t.co/xHsEwN5Ymq. Meanwhile free meals and even groceries are being offered to federal employees working without pay during the #shutdown. pic.twitter.com/llgfEM8Jre

Are you flying soon? Are you concerned about how long the security wait will be at the airport?
