Hello,

I'm flying to Pittsburgh this weekend. For people that have used the airport in the last couple of months, are there big delays like has been mentioned at some airports, or is Pittsburgh still same as always? By same as always I mean not to bad, same as it was last year. I've been there several times.

Thanks!

It's usually not too bad, for the most part. I'm usually through in 15 minutes.

Although in March I left during a busy Monday morning and I did have to wait 45 minutes to get through security.

The last I was there was 2 weeks ago & didn't notice anything unusual. If the downstairs security is backed up you can try the alternate security line on the 2nd floor.

The alternate security line is normally about 10 minutes faster.
When in that line, if it backs up to the door to the outside area, that's about a 25 minute wait.

Last time I was told that the alternative security line was faster and had no wait... then I got there and there was a huge line.

I was about to say I had this exact thing happen a few years ago. So I've never used that option again. I don't know what would have happened at the main line, but that alternate better option was long as heck.

I think they pretty much tell everyone that the alternative line has a shorter wait no matter what.
