BWI travelers advised to arrive 3 hours before scheduled departure

(Linthicum, MD) -- BWI-Marshall is advising travelers to arrive at the airport early due to longer than normal checkpoint wait times.

BWI says travelers should arrive three hours before their scheduled departure time.

Meanwhile, travelers are reacting to President Trump's proposal to install ICE at airports to help with long security lines due to the TSA staffing shortages.

One traveler tells local news she does not think the move is necessary and what the government needs to do is get the funding needed to pay TSA agents.

The TSA workers could miss their second full paycheck next week unless lawmakers can reach a deal on funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
