With summer travel in full swing and July 4th just up ahead, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has announced another record-breaking day of flying already achieved.
Agents screened nearly 3.1 million travelers this past Sunday, marking the busiest day nationwide in TSA’s history, according to a press release.
Sunday, June 22, also set a record at Chicago O’Hare International Airport for the most people screened on a single day. The TSA screened some 114,000 individuals that day, it said.
“On our busiest days, our officers remain laser-focused on delivering a safe and efficient screening experience to all passengers traveling through our airports,” said Jim Spriggs, federal security director for TSA Illinois.
Spriggs added, “We appreciate those who arrive at the checkpoint prepared with REAL ID or another acceptable form of ID, and with no prohibited items in their carry-on bags.”
