Abstract

At present most of the airport security cost a very long time. To relieve the tension between security maximization and positive flying experience, we describe the current security checking process by analyzing the time distribution of each step. We ignore those delay caused by happenstance to simplify the problem solving, and make several assumption to fill up the lack of the given data, so that we can apply Service Model Simulation to achieve a visual representation of the security checkpoint process and identify the bottlenecks further by means of Monte Carlo algorithm. By additional analysis, we find the bottlenecks of current security checkpoint are the skill level of TSA staff and the time spent by passengers in preparing belongings to be X-rayed.
