Main line looked like there were a handful of people waiting--probably no more than 2-3 minutes over there.



TSA won't schedule like this--it's why PHX is always a mess around the DST switch. TSA is staffed for the previous week's schedule when the pax flows are an hour earlier/later depending on month. Takes a few weeks to get back to normal.

One thing that would help SEA is making one dedicated PreCheck checkpoint, then have a lane over in Delta land. Of course, that will never happen. Or if it did, the checkpoint would only be open for two hours, starting at 4a and closing at 6a.
