Travel direct flight at least to SJO on Sunday morning at 9a out of IAD. How are the security lines?

Returning will suck as we have a connection in the evening through EWR.

Thanks for any insights to manage my expectations..

Why would returning suck? You don't go through security for a connection.

You do have to go through security if connecting from an international flight.

No way is this true. I haven't connected in a while, but usually you just go through immigration and customs, collect and drop off your bag, and continue to your departure gate. No TSA security (or TSA-like, if in another country). The only exception I've experienced to this is Dublin, which made me leave the secure area to get my ticket from the United desk.

No delay going through security at National around 6 am this morning. Very fast line through Pre-check. The regular line also seemed short.
