Rather than going to the separate line, travelers will be directed to the main screening areas. At this time, there is no indication of when both operations will be back and functioning again. <\/p>\n<p>In particular, for travelers used to utilizing PreCheck, be sure to arrive at the airport earlier than usual to accommodate lengthened security wait times.
