Show Notes
Spring break travelers at Salt Lake International Airport faced long security lines, with wait times up to 90 minutes, but they improved to under 30 minutes by 8:30 a.m. Nationwide, TSA agents working without pay due to the partial government shutdown have caused similar delays, with over 3,100 agents calling out sick on Wednesday. Since the shutdown started, nearly 500 TSA officers have quit, adding to the strain. The Senate passed a funding bill to restore pay, but it still needs House approval before lawmakers Easter break. Airport staff advise travelers to allow extra time.
