They fixed that. Now you can fly without taking your laptop out, or taking your shoes and belt off. You just have to give them fingerprints, a facial scan and an in-person interview. They give you a little card. It's nifty.
- dingnuts 2y agothere's nothing socially repressive about having airline travel segregated into classes of passengers at all, nope, this is completely normal /s I go through the regular TSA line out of solidarity and protest. Fuck the security theater.
- noduerme 2y agoMy response was intended as sarcasm. But eventually, I don't think it will be a two-tiered system. You simply won't be allowed to fly without what is currently required for precheck. And fwiw, I don't think the strong argument against precheck has to do with social class... it's not terribly expensive, and anyone can do it. It's just a further invasion of privacy.
- smsm42 2y agoPrecheck is super cheap, it's like less than $100 once per 5 years. Yes, it is an invasion of privacy, but I suspect the government already has all that data anyway many times over.
- fourteenfour 2y agoTotally with you. Pre-check is an ugly band-aid on a flawed system.
