US woman claims airport pat down was more 'fondling' than 'frisking'
A woman in the US, who was left humiliated during an airport security pat down, has claimed that it felt more like fondling than frisking. Nancy Campbell, 33, an urban planner from Brooklyn, was frisked at La Guardia Airport last week, and she said she was left traumatized by a touchy-feely female TSA agent before her flight to Washington.

Your government officials is a joke!
Sorry you had a bad experience with some TSA officers. Please ask to speak to a lead, supervisor, or airside manager if you encounter any altercations in the future. You can also post a comment on the TSA website, noting the details. I wish you the best... The Tampa TSA agents are almost always very kind and helpful to each passenger, unless you opt to get testy first.
Amy....Wanna bet? Have you talked to some of these people(TSA)?..Have you seen the way they carry themselves? Heard the way some of them speak? Observe the way they conduct themselves at the mere hint of a perceived objection to their authority?
How can anyone trust a person who's initial gut reaction to a passenger who asks why this is happening, is anger?
Look, you and anyone else is free to stand up for these workers. Bottom line is these stories and accounts of TSA personnel acting in bad faith are well documented.
BTW Spirit Air does not fly anywhere near here and I would not give my money to a carrier that charges the highest bag fees in the industry.

Spirit Air used to run some great low fare specials. Depends on your destination, though. Not sure what they are offering these days. Check their website.
and which $99 fares are those?
Just checked so -called low fare carrier SWA out of GSP to ALB on off peak days.....Thurs out Tuesday back....fare is almost $500.....$99, my fanny.
Oh US may have those juicy last minute fares. For what, maybe 10 seats on the aircraft?...Please. The day of affordable air travel for infrequent or leisure travelers are over.
Can't really blame the carriers though. They are of course, in business to turn a profit as well.

TSA does x-ray screening and random bag checks on all cargo luggage. You would be surprised at the level of safety that is ensured by these procedures. If you want to complain, call your Congressman who represents you to suggest the changes you prefer; that's what your tax dollars pay for...
Glad I don't work at the Pentagon. I don't want to know the global threats that they are aware of, and protect us from at best every day.
TSA does not hire high school drop-outs, either.

Lol Ken... You live in an alternate universe. As long as there are plentiful $99 one way fares, EVERYONE and grandma will fly.
