Travel Forum / Travel Types / Air Travel / November 2005do we go through security at each location?
We will be flying the day after Christmas from Springfield, MO to Palm Springs, CA. We change planes (a 2 hr layover) in Dallas. Does this mean we will go through the security checkpoint(s?) at Dallas as well? I'd like to know if we have to factor in time for a Dallas security check? thank you, Mel (haven't travelled by air since right before 9-11) >We will be flying the day after Christmas from Springfield, MO to Palm >Springs, CA.

No. Unless you intentionally leave airside, there's no reason to get rescreened. The new DFW Airlink tram connects all the terminals inside security. >>We will be flying the day after Christmas from Springfield, MO to Palm >>Springs, CA.

It doesn't allow connections from International to US Domestic without going through security. JohnT >It doesn't allow connections from International to US Domestic without going >through security. Well, true, but no US airport allows that. In any case, Springfield, MO to Palm Springs, CA isn't an international transfer - at least not usually. It can vary. I've flown out of Atlanta after coming in on other domestic flights a number of times and sometimes they made us go through another security check and sometimes not. Probably depends on what the latest warnings they are getting. I've had friends miss flights when they got to the airport with 2 hours lead because security had been tightened.

Could you be a little more specific? I've been thorugh Atlanta hundreds of times and am reasonably familiar with all of the terminals there. The old 'T' gates probably still have isolated hallways (they used to be used for international flight arrivals), but all the usual jetways dump everyone right into a concourse. I've also never been screened on a domestic connection there. > It can vary.

There is a clear answer to the question. They do NOT have to go through security again. They aren't going though Atlanta, they are going through DFW Is this some attempt to advertise your site by answering this kinds of questions without really answering them? Additionally, I have never had to go through security again when making a domestic to domestic connection in Atlanta. |
