I just flew last weekend and the plane was completely full, although the airport was definitely much slower than normal. What seems odd is that TSA was literally searching everyone’s bags as if they were expecting some sort of terrorist attack. Even the precheck travelers were being forced to take their shoes off and take everything out of their bags. I’m guessing because they have slowed down they are going the extra mile and make sure that flyers aren’t trying to sneak too much toothpaste on the plane.
