What happens if you miss your flight due to long TSA lines?

As a partial government shutdown continues, travelers face long lines at airport security checkpoints as the Transportation Security Administration experiences delays.
For Touchless ID, children 12 and under can use the lane with a parent or guardian, and rules are the same as TSA PreCheck, the source states.
Southwest Airlines has occasionally allowed penalty-free rebooking, while Delta Air Lines advises using its app and may accommodate passengers on standby within two hours of departure.
Ultimately, airlines are not required to provide assistance for security-related delays, and travelers could be liable for rebooking costs, as long as delays are not their responsibility.
If you believe you might miss your flight, contact your airline immediately to explore options, but remember flexibility is not guaranteed.
