(CNN) – Almost a million dollars in change was left last year at airport security checkpoints.

TSA airport screeners collected more than $960,000 in unclaimed money last fiscal year.

New York’s JFK Airport collected the most at about $72,000 followed by LAX, Miami International and Chicago O’Hare.

The agency says it will use the money for checkpoint maintenance and new signs.
