The good news is that we’re already past four of those days, and tomorrow is the only one left on that list! After that, things should calm down just a little bit, but not by much. Be sure to arrive at least two hours in advance for your domestic flight (three hours for international flights) to give yourself ample time to get through security and get settled. Security wait times have been quite long recently, so you won’t want to be caught off guard.
However, you can also check out MCO Reserve, which is completely free! You basically reserve your time to go through security and head to a completely separate area. It can be great for skipping long lines without costing you any additional money! If you are open to a paid option, you can also check out TSA PreCheck or CLEAR.
