St. Pete–Clearwater International Airport security wait times

~15 min through security at PIE, from our airport directory. Early mornings and holiday weekends run longer.

Budget that on top of check-in or bag drop and the walk to your gate. For your exact leave-home time, enter your flight above: the plan uses the live wait when there is one.

Arrive 2–3 hours early — TSA hours are unpublished. Official FAQ asks for two hours on US flights and three hours when you leave the country, plus extra for parking construction. Official pages do not print checkpoint clock hours or a wait tile.
