A new security checkpoint located at the south end of the terminal on the arrivals level at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) opened to the traveling public at 4am. on Friday, June 6, 2025. The checkpoint features five standard screening lanes.
The new checkpoint, SCP1, is designed to screen up to 750 passengers per hour. It is the first checkpoint on the baggage claim level as part of new designs in a space constrained terminal.
New security technologies in use at SCP 1 include the latest Credential Authentication Technology (CAT-2) for identity verification, and flat-panel millimeter wave passenger scanners that provide feedback to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officer prior to scanning.
