The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is preparing to screen a record 17.4 million passengers at U.S. airports, attributed to cheaper domestic ticket prices and an 11 percent drop in hotel rates, according to AAA.
Travelers are advised to plan ahead, arrive at the airport earlier than usual, and be prepared for potentially long lines.
