#Border Line Wait Time

No TSA Pre-Check!!! ALL PASSENGERS MUST USE GENERAL BOARDING. Every week it’s something new. Last week it was El Paso’s air space…this week…Pre-Check. I would say that these are distractions but Ya’ll don’t care. Oh yeah…I read about the aliens.🙄

When you do airport travel, how long are you planning to arrive at the airport before departure? Growing up it was always 2 hours. International dealing with customs were always told 3 hours. TSA pre check is a game changer. Check luggage, and then it's literally walk through TSA. I think the longest its taken me to get through TSA pre check was maybe 15 mins coming off a Christmas or Thanksgiving flight. Whats your rule of thumb?

TSA PreCheck and Global Entry Suspended

Your thoughts? Smart move or the wrong move? 🇧🇷 version soon #tsaprecheck #globalentry #travelnews

DHS has suspended TSA Precheck and Global Entry amid the partial government shutdown. Expect longer screening times for security checks. This goes into effect on February 22. #travelhacks #frequentflyer #airportlife #tsaprecheck

Everybody reposting… but did anyone verify? Before you cancel flights or stress about TSA PreCheck — check official sources first. Misinformation spreads faster than boarding groups. #TSAPreCheck #TravelUpdate #AirportInsider #Quest2connect #TravelNews #FrequentFlyer

Even I didn’t know it was this bad 👇🏻 In the USA alone, TSA says passengers ‘lose’ over 100,000 items at checkpoints every single month - phones, laptops, wallets, you name it. That is more than a million things a year disappearing between those gray bins and the end of the belt. And the scariest part?… 📱Almost half of that isn’t lost, it’s taken! At big airports like Los Angeles, about 4 out of 10 phones reported “lost” at security are actually stolen. Not misplaced. Stolen. Security is where you are rushed, distracted, and separated from your stuff - which makes it the easiest place for things to quietly disappear. Here’s how to stop being an easy target at security 👇 ✅ Keep valuables zipped, not loose Put your phone, passport, wallet, and AirPods inside a zipped pocket in your backpack or personal item before you get in line. Do not toss them loose in the tray where anyone can grab them. ✅ Send boring stuff first, valuables last Shoes, jacket, empty tote bag go on the belt first. Your bag with valuables goes on last, right before you walk through the scanner. That way your most important stuff comes out when you’re already on the other side watching the belt, not sitting alone while you’re still in line. ✅ If you’re with someone, use the buddy system One person goes through the scanner first and waits right at the belt to grab bags. The second person loads the bins. At no point are your things on the belt with nobody watching them. ✅ Don’t rush off until you’ve accounted for everything This is where thieves and simple loss both win. Ignore your notifications, step to the side, and quickly check: phone, passport, wallet, laptop, bag zippers closed. A 20 second pause here is better than spending your layover trying to file a claim. 🧳Always feel like you packed too much stuff?

You don’t need a boarding pass to get through TSA. True story. My brother forgot his phone. I had about 20 minutes before his flight. I went straight to the airline counter, explained the situation, showed my ID, and they issued me a gate pass so I could go through airport security without a ticket. If you’re a 40+ traveler who likes to plan your own trips, this is the kind of real-world travel tip that lowers stress fast. Airport security isn’t always as rigid as we think. Gate passes are still a thing. And sometimes the “emergency” is handled in five calm minutes at the counter. DIY travel doesn’t mean you have to know everything. It means you know how to solve problems when they pop up. Save this for your next airport run.
