Which 20 airports have the highest number of TSA thefts?


Skift Take

This is the first time the TSA has released data where fired employees worked, but it’s no surprise that thefts are most prevalent at airports in the biggest cities with the highest passenger traffic.

The TSA has fired nearly 400 employees for allegedly stealing from travelers, and for the first time, the agency is revealing the airports where those fired employees worked. Newly released figures provided to ABC News by the TSA in response to a Freedom of Information Act request show that, unsurprisingly, many of the country's busiest airports also rank at the top for TSA employees fired for theft.

The top airports across the U.S. for TSA employees fired for theft are:

1. Miami International Airport (29)

2. JFK International Airport (27)

3. Los Angeles International Airport (24)
