    About TSA Security at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County

    Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport has two main terminals: the McNamara Terminal (serving Delta's hub) and the North Terminal (serving other carriers). Each terminal has its own TSA security checkpoint with TSA PreCheck lanes available at both. The McNamara Terminal features the automated people mover (MTC) connecting the main terminal to the Express Terminal (concourse A). The McNamara checkpoint handles the heaviest traffic as DTW is Delta's second-largest hub. North Terminal typically processes passengers faster. Allow extra time during January through March when winter storms affect operations.
