@Donna Hull, That was my experience as well, Donna. I'm curious to see how it is this morning at Newark after another incident (although a more minor one) yesterday.

@Mary Jo Manzanares, You were right, Mary Jo. Besides noticing an increased security presence, going through security was about like normal. And our flights were on time and uneventful. Thanks for keeping us informed.

@Donna Hull, I'm not sure you'll see a big difference, Donna, if you're flying domestically. Lots of frustrated people, and some longer lines, but I think that's about it.

I’ll be flying tomorrow. Although my husband and I aren’t looking forward to the experience, it’s time to return home after a great Christmas holiday. So, we’ll be patient, keep our cool and concentrate on all the fun we’ve had with family.

@chris,
I’m suggesting that people roll with the punches until a written regulation gets handed down. Only then will you know exactly what you’re dealing with. I expect we’ll see something in writing withing a week or so, as procedures and policies get refined.

Once the regulation is issued, it’s different story. Then, by all means, feel free to take whatever action you think is appropriate to try to change the regulation. I’d advise against acting out at security or on board, but I’m sure we’ll see plenty of that as well.

So roll with the punches… when they ask you to only wear underwear when flying, would you tell people to roll with those punches as well?

Those of us who do significant long haul international travel are going to be severely inconvenienced by this. So now I need to lose 1+ hour of sleep on the plane because security is too inept to properly screen passengers?

Bull.
