(Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) – Will Rogers World Airport (OKC) is seeing a steady flow of travelers this week with over 75,000 people going through the security checkpoint area to catch their flights.

 

“We would like to remind passengers who are traveling this weekend and into August, to arrive at least two hours before you board your flight," said Stacey Hamm, PIO for WRWA.

 

“This will give you plenty of time to find parking as our parking garages fill up fast."

 

TSA has been working to process passengers as quickly as they can during peak travel times and ensure all equipment issues will be resolved by this weekend. Passengers can help can facilitate the screening process by planning and packing properly to ease your travel experience at the airport.  Even if an item is generally permitted, it may be subject to additional screening or not allowed through the checkpoint if it triggers an alarm during the screening process, appears to have been tampered with, or poses other security concerns.
