It wore me out too. And that was "accomplished" by mid November. I didn't fly the rest of the year.

I am, yes, once they are completed. Until then, it's a cluster ****. And the new and improved West security is worse than North was. Thankfully, my brother (United GS) told me about a secret security line and it's fantastic.

Lounges, not security. :)

But yeah, agreed on the security checkpoints. The future looks good, but kind of a pain in the meantime.

I know. That's why I said this:

I am, yes, once they (the lounges) are completed.

:)

But I rarely use the United Clubs anywhere, unless there's a long delay. I time things to get to the gate(s) no earlier than 30 to 45 minutes before boarding. And since I'm 1K, I don't have to worry about being last in a long line and run out of overhead space. Nice perk.

I can see how flying a lot can be exhausting.
Had a friend that flew every Mon to chicago, stayed the week, came home Fri. ugh.

Other than that----people. Anxious people.
you are zone 5-get the **** out of the way for those of us that are zone one. Watched a couple stand up, block everyone, the whole plane filled up, they were almost the last to board. What did they gain?

Never have had a nutcase go crazy-it is just a matter of time.

I think everyone should just wait to be last to board.

I do that when I am in the last boarding group. Wait until they are ready to close the door.

More like a 68 IQ and a $23,000 new worth.

I think you have things mixed up again, just like all your posts in DC.

The way you bow to the government, you are the royal peasant. ROFL

I have to be honest. My day won't be complete until you tell the group what you had for breakfast at your hotel. Did you take pictures???

I'll PM you a photo of the shit I took after my breakfast. :rolleyes:

I am at the airport right now and I dislike everything about public traveling. I'm like John Larquette at the end of Stripes in the bunker blaming everybody for everything.

Nobody's telling you when to line up.

Wow, I flew out of there and in there Feb 7 and Feb 14 going to KC to watch the SB with my Dad, and didn't have problems like that.

I always get on the plane last. People always try to hurry to get on the plane first as if they are getting something extra to get on first. That’s just another 20-30 minutes to be crammed on a plane with a bunch of random people.

I’ve been living that life the last 4 1/2 years. 2-3 round trip flights to godforsaken Cleveland. The flights are short(2 hours), cheap($50-60 roundtrip) and direct which makes it a lot easier. I never travel with anything more than a small backpack and I’ve had TSA precheck the whole time, which minimizes my time at the airport. It’s definitely gotten old over the years and I dread my time in Ohio, but the job is worth it. Hopefully this shit will be over this year and I can be home full-time.

I haven’t had too much drama on my flights, which is small miracle considering most of my flights are with Frontier and Spirit. The Frontier staff at the gates are assholes about bag sizes and are often harassing passengers to get them to pay extra bag fees for their carry on bags. There’s a lot of little hacks I’ve learned over the years to minimize the nuisances and make everything much smoother.
