A turbine shroud assembly includes a carrier segment, a blade track segment, and a buffer air seal assembly. The carrier segment includes a cantilevered wall extending radially inwardly within a recess so as to form a groove between the cantilevered wall and the inner wall of the recess. The buffer air seal assembly includes first, second, and third seal members arranged in the groove. The second and third seal members are aligned with each other and arranged radially outward of the first seal member. The cantilevered wall a barrier portion wider than a main portion of the wall such that the barrier portion extends at least partially into the groove. The second and third seal members are arranged on opposing circumferential sides of the barrier portion such that the barrier portion blocks circumferential movement of the second and third seal members.
