Description: Detroit Metropolitan Airport is one of the busiest airports in the Midwest, and security wait times can vary depending on the time of day and travel season. On average, security lines at DTW Security Wait Times range from 10 to 30 minutes during normal travel periods. However, during peak times such as early mornings, holidays, and summer weekends, wait times can exceed 45 minutes. DTW has two main terminals—McNamara and Evans—and each terminal experiences different traffic levels. McNamara Terminal, which serves Delta Airlines, is generally more efficient due to advanced screening technology. Travelers are encouraged to arrive at least two hours early for domestic flights and three hours early for international flights. Using tools like TSA PreCheck or CLEAR can significantly reduce wait times. Being prepared with proper identification and following TSA guidelines also helps speed up the screening process.
