Airports Voluntarily Submit Wait-Time Data
Airport and aircraft operators may voluntarily submit aggregated real-time wait-time (RTWT) data to TSA; TSA estimates 348 respondent airports annually. TSA states the data will be submitted electronically as agreed with the operator, collected in 60-second or less intervals, and TSA estimates annual time burden hours: 0 and annual cost burden: 0.
No Personal Data Collected
The RTWT data that TSA will collect and share is aggregated across screening lane configurations and does not contain any personally identifiable information. TSA will collect and store the aggregated data electronically and will use it to provide public information via MyTSA.
