Travel industry leaders warn government shutdown will disrupt airport security and spring break travel

Travel groups urge Congress to avoid a shutdown that would leave TSA staff unpaid. They warn that absences could cause long airport delays during spring break.

Major airlines and travel groups warned on Friday that a potential partial government shutdown in the US USUS would force about 50,000 Transportation Security Administration (TSA) airport security officers to work without pay starting this Saturday. The industry groups cautioned that such a development would increase the risk of unscheduled absences among personnel, which could lead to higher wait times at security checkpoints and more missed or delayed flights across the country.
