    About TSA Security at Washington Dulles International

    Washington Dulles International has two main security points: the Main Terminal checkpoint and the Midfield Terminal (concourses B, C, and D) checkpoint. TSA PreCheck is available at the Main Terminal checkpoint. The Midfield Terminal gates, used largely for United Airlines international flights, require taking an underground AeroTrain from the main terminal post-security. Dulles is a major international gateway — international departures through the Midfield Terminal should budget 3 hours. The DC Dulles Toll Road and Metrorail Silver Line extension (Dulles Airport Station) provide vehicular and rail access. Morning flights on weekdays see the most manageable checkpoint wait times.
