Got a flight out Wednesday morning around 9am… trying to figure how early I should arrive?

Will also be checking bags. Flying southwest

Had a flight 2 Thursdays ago at 7 AM and it took my MIL 45 minutes or so to get through. Clear had us through in 5 since they had the dog sniffing. One of the longest non-holiday lines I had seen.

Southwest bag drop was busy but very quick.

It is really all about timing. There are time where the regular line has no one, and times where it is a 45 minute wait.

The parking garage on campus has been full lately too, so if you need to do USPark or the economy lot, add extra time. For a 9am flight I would recommend getting there at 730.

I prebooked a spot in the garage, so I should be good there. Supposedly it'll guarantee you a spot.

Thanks for all the feedback. Would ideally like to get through security in time to grab breakfast before boarding.
