Seriously I'm wondering what will be different from the flight we took on Wed. Make a prediction and I'll let you know how it goes. :hi:

1. Uh... must you fly at all? Flying has become a living hell.
I'm thinking trains might be better, and they're almost extinct here in the U.S. I MISS EUROPE!

25. ROFLMAO! Man, it's terrible to have to have your eyes peeled when flying
I remember when you could sleep on a flight. No more. Now everyone is staring at everyone else!

9. The first time I travelled to Israel, they checked between my legs
SHEESH! That's one hellish experience! Don't worry it wasn't gynecological tho, thank goodness.

35. Got home without a problem
No great change in security either. Thanks for the bail offer. That's a real friend. :hug:

Probably would be a good idea to get to the airport a bit earlier than planned. This certainly isn't going to make flying any more pleasant.

14. I was escorted out of the secured area by 6 TSA agents back out to the terminal
for muttering "I wish they would hurry the Fuck up"...because they were taking an hr to go through my things..the TSA trainee was taking things out 1 by 1, and items were dropping on the floor.. can't imagine uttering a word now.. Other passengers looked at me like I was wanted by Interpol..

13. Go earlier! Did you read the NBC/MSNBC article in LBN?
www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4199438 Let us know how it goes. I am so glad I don't travel like I used to... They're preparing for the last terrorist act...not the next.

but take all the lighters you can carry. Also don't bring 35mm film, they'll club you like a Harp Seal for that.

28. I fly internationally Thursday. I'm not worried about getting out...
I'm worried about getting back in or more specifically what the "rules" will be then for flying into the US. I've got a fairly tight schedule and long security lines won't help much.
