If your family is heading out of town for Thanksgiving this year, traveling by air just got a little easier.
Long lines at the airport are expected during the holidays, but Lubbock International Airport has opened special lanes for families to get through security.
So those traveling with children can take their time and those who fly often, won't get so frustrated.
And if you're confused about which lane you should be in, Transportation Security Administration agents are in place to help travelers navigate to the apporpriate lane.
"We'll have someone up front, our customer service representative, that will seperate you and put in the appropriate lanes so you know where to go. So if you would just pay attention to what those guys are directing you to do, then you'll sort of get in the appropriate lane," Will Williamson with TSA says.
Williamson recommends you arrive at the airport at least two hours before your flight departs, especially if you're traveling with children.
