What Can I Do if I Have Problems When Traveling?
If you have an immediate problem while being screened, you should ask for a supervisor. If the supervisor is not able to resolve the situation, you should ask for the TSA’s Customer Service Manager for that airport. You can also call the TSA Contact Center at 1-866-289-9673.
After your trip concludes, you may also want to make a complaint. Complaints about discriminatory treatment by TSA personnel can be directed to TSA’s Disability and Multicultural Division.
You should email your complaint to at the Disability and Multicultural Division at TSA.ODPO@tsa.dhs.gov.
TSA also accepts complaints by mail, although there may be a delay of 4 weeks because of security:

If you think you have experienced discriminatory treatment by air carrier personnel (pilots, flight attendants, gate agents or check-in counter personnel), you should contact your air carrier and you may make a complaint with the Department of Transportation’s Aviation Consumer Protection Division (ACPD). You may also call the ACPD at 1-202-366-2220. More information on where travelers may file complaints for travel service problems is available here.
