Security question for PHX, terminal 4

I have to catch an early flight next Tuesday out of PHX on WN. It leaves around 0615-0630. Just wondering if anyone knows typically how long the security lines are for those early flights? I'm not checking any luggage and trying to figure out how early I need to arrive.
Thanks.

The good thing about T4 is there are a lot of security entrances that all can get you to the same place. For WN, you can try both the C and D checkpoints and have a relatively short walk. You can also get there from A or B if they'll let you through with a WN boarding pass, but it's a much longer walk. If your flight is really that early, I can't imagine it being very crowded. The big departure push will probably not start until around 7a or so. If you get there 45 mins in advance, I'd think you'd be ok.

Thanks for the info. I normally fly NW out of terminal 3 and I forgot that there are about 4 security checkpoints at ter. 4. I was thinking 45 mins should be ok and I'm going to go with that.
