Sailing out of Port Canaveral this year? Due to the higher security measures at this port, you may want to leave extra time for boarding. The Transportation Security Administration has announced that they plan to increase the screening at the port. As reported in the Orlando Sentinel, TSA has assembled a team of security specialists from federal and local agencies who will be randomly deployed at the port to more heavily screen passengers and their bags.
"One day we might have on-site an expert on fraudulent documents and another expert on behavior," a TSA official told the paper. "The next, we might have none or we might have 10 other experts. The idea is to keep things random and unpredictable."
Currently, Port Canaveral is the third busiest cruise port in the US. These security measures may translate into longer check-in lines at the port, so plan accordingly
