Denver International Airport to make security checkpoint adjustments

DENVER (KRDO) -- Starting Wednesday, Denver International Airport (DIA) is planning on making adjustments to its security checkpoint, according to 9NEWS.

DIA and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) added a "limited number" of PreCheck lanes to the South Security Checkpoint.

In addition, there is a limited number of standard screening lanes in the North Checkpoint, according to DIA officials.

"The additional lanes will provide passengers arriving from the hotel and transit center on the south end and international arrivals on the north end more options to access the appropriate screening lanes on either end of the terminal," said a news release from DIA.

DIA recommends passengers to be at least two hours inside the airport before their board time.
