Why airport security is so slow and how the TSA and airlines are trying to fix it
Excruciating long lines are common, especially during holiday travel, as millions of people pass through TSA checkpoints every day. (www.cnbc.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Same shit in Sweden ARN think security hate trawelers,
Pretty simple solution really. Just limit the number of flights to a few per day. Space the departure times out so they are not bunched up (none of this block of flights business).
Then you can reduce the number of TSA checkpoints and staff.
Airlines can reduce their fleets and staffing.
Airlines cans charge higher ticket prices.
Flyers will not face long lines at checkpoints.
Redundant space previously used by security checkpoints can be repurposed for shopping area (e.g. duty free).
Everybody wins!

Saw this "new" technology in use at DTW a year ago from Smiths Detection. It was terribly slow and the company bragged about getting a TSA contract for more of them. Lots of false positives. This is progress? https://www.smithsdetection.com/solution/checkpoint-solutions/
Security theater. Haven’t we seen enough of this play? https://youtu.be/QKEdKdgi2hg
"test facial recognition for boarding and TSA checkpoints" is not a solution to security theater. Checking ID is not a bottleneck. Simple solution: treat everyone like pre-check and up the random checks.
Once the cockpit doors were armored the TSA was redundant. Passengers now know they have to fight back or die TSA now redundant.
