TSA pre check is the way to go, I was in MCO last week. We dropped off the car at 7:00PM and was in the lounge by 7:16.

This story is pretty crazy tho, I hope they got some of it on video!

most stories in the the news are embellished . be that as it may if only half of the story is true someone needs to lose their job
May you slide down the banister of happiness & get many splinters of success up your career.

i actually find that part almost the most believable.

I wish the family best of luck and I am sorry this happened to them. Something like this is never fun and is most traumatizing.... that being said..... it seems to me a chillul hashem could have been avoided by not waiting to arrive/ board until the last second....

This scenario sounds extremely plausible to me:

Quote from: gabe_e12 February 5, 2018 8:24 pm at 8:24 pm[/size
I’m reading between the lines…..the writer was delaying her boarding as long as possible so as to allow time for her husband to make it. When her husband told her to go ahead and board she still wanted to try to drag it out long enough for her husband to make the flight. The gate attendants needed to board all traveling passengers before boarding the standbys. She was delaying boarding, finally the frustrated gate attendant decided she wouldn’t put up with her anymore and she started to fuss because she was now ready to board. Well she missed that opportunity, and the gate attendant went back to her job of boarding the stand by passengers, refusing to deal with this pain in the neck anymore. Once she saw she wasn’t getting anywhere she started making a ruckus and insisting on getting the gate attendant to meet her demands, leaving an already frustrated gate attendant to call security to extricate herself from a passenger who feels entitled, when there’s no reason for her to have to defend her actions. Granted she got a bad break with security, but the rest of the story smells like she’s blaming a gate attendant for not giving in to her shenanigans.
