After a partial government shutdown that impacted the Department of Homeland Security for over a month, an end may be in sight, hopefully translating to eased wait lines at airports across the country that have struggled with TSA staffing.
Senate lawmakers passed a funding bill March 27, which will then be voted on by the House and, if passed, make it to U.S. President Donald Trump.
The shutdown caused a number of issues at airports around the U.S., including Philadelphia, where multiple terminal security checkpoints remain closed to "optimize operations" at other terminal security checkpoints, the airport said.
Here's what you before you fly out of Philadelphia this weekend.

As of Friday, March 27, security checkpoints at Philadelphia's Terminals A-West, C and F were still closed.
While these checkpoints are closed, all terminals remain open and accessible. Passengers flying out of Philadelphia can still get to those terminals once they pass security at other checkpoints, the airport explained.
