Some aviation experts believe certain delays could happen if the war between Israel and Iran intensifies.

Long lines of passengers waiting at TSA security at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in the morning on Dec. 20, 2023.

"What we’ve told airports that we work with, "It’s your responsibility to make sure that you have a plan." That plan is if something happens at Seattle, or something happens at Spokane, or something happens at Bellingham, you better have a plan on your own to know what to do about it. The TSA, they’re fine, fine people working at these airports, I think the world of them. They’re not security, they’re the pointy object patrol,” Boyd said.

Boyd added that depending on the severity of the conflict, more flights crossing the Atlantic may see some delays.
