The TSA said Friday’s travel broke a record set in November of nearly 2.91 million air passengers screened.
The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said it screened 2.95 million airline passengers on Friday, the highest number ever on a single day.
The record travel coincides with the Memorial Day weekend that marks the beginning of the U.S. summer travel season. Last week, a group representing major U.S. airlines forecast record summer travel with airlines expected to transport 271 million passengers, up 6.3% from last year.
The TSA said Friday’s travel broke a record set in November of nearly 2.91 million air passengers screened. Five of the 10 busiest ever travel days have been since May 16, the agency said.
“Screens”, ha. TSA screens passengers like Saran Wrap’s a viable condom. Hell, Saran Wrap alone’d be better airport security than these fascist fucknuts. 🤌🏽
downvote all you want, magats. 😘
It’s all security theatre.
Idk. They were able to find my water bottle that I stashed in my backpack and forgot about pretty well. Even told me what pocket it was in.
Oh it’s totally possible for them to be effective, they just very rarely are.
Whenever I fly, I put a lighter (I don’t smoke) and a full liquid hand sanitizer spritzer in random pockets in my carryon. I still separate my normal toiletries into the required quart-sized bag, but leave the liquid hand sanitizer and lighter in the bag as a kind of test. They have never once noticed or cared, and I travel a fair amount.
