I've never flown in the US; I live in the EU and generally aim for 2 hours if I have checked baggage, 1.5 hours if not. That usually causes me to still have significant waiting time after the security check, but better safe than sorry.

Airport and airline dependent. I’ve waited an hour and a half to check my car seat for a budget airline.

TSA are equal opportunity haters and don’t care if you got to the airport two hours ago and your flight is in 30 minutes. They tell you to get in their line 2 hours before your flight and by god sometimes they are gonna make you wait two hours.

Edit: oh yeah also waited an hour becuase my budget airline wouldn’t let me print boarding passes and said “see agent” but didn’t staff any agents. Turns out they want to make sure your one year old is actually a baby and you’re not just a cheapskate trying to hold a twelve year old in your lap.

Tell me you’re from Denver without telling me you’re from Denver

TSA tells you 2 hours, not 4. This person's father is unwell.

you: their dad is a genuine danger to society.

you cannot be fucking serious.

....no. I'm not serious at all, and I didn't say dangerous either, just unwell. Again though, not being serious.
