My problem is centered on how to improve the predictability of airport security checkpoint time. The two products I have in mind has to do with 

1. An alert app that allows travelers to link their flight information and receive constant alerts on the day of their trip. This app would alert a person four hours prior to their trip and similar to a GPS, it would track a travelers location to help predict how long security checkpoints will take, depending on where they are (How far they are from the airport & how far security is when they arrive at the airport).

With this, travelers will be able to know the average time it will take them to fo through security and make it on time to their flight. The app will give an alert four hours prior, at the time of heading to the airport, and arriving at the airport. Users can turn off the app at any time if they believe they are already early for their flight.  This app represents a service! 

A few versions of this include:

- MyTSA which is the airport security's own app. The only difference is that other passengers log in times and they pretty much update other travelers on their way. It's like having a friend using the same app as you to keep you updated. My app would be offered at the end of every flight booked to inform travelers about this because I had no idea this existed. 

- MiFlight tells you how long the wait is likely to be and provides airport maps. 

2. A simple time clock is another service I would provide to conquer this need for people already inside the airport. The clock would be at bag check-in, in lobbies, at restaurants, and about the actual security checkpoint. This will inform travelers as they are on their way to take their journeys!
