The TSA says on any given day this holiday season, as many as 8,000 to 10,000 travelers will go through the security checkpoints at the Memphis airport.

From four to eight security checkpoints, the TSA says they have accelerated the process.
TSA also announced modified procedures for passengers 12 and younger and 75 and older.
"Now that doesn't eliminate the possibility for a pat-down but it does expedite the screening process for those folks," said TSA Federal Security Director Kevin McCarthy.

Keep in mind there is now a MyTSA app for your smartphone providing 24/7 access to TSA information.
