Going home from a US Airport. JFK TSA out to help airlines make money!!!
I arrived two hours before my flight at JFK. Checked in via the kiosk and then checked my luggage in. I had one carry on under twenty pounds in a suitcase no larger then 20inchs. I was in line, went though security without being searched. I stopped at the D&D shop for a light and sweet med coffee. I turned around and FOUR TSA agents were there to tell me they needed to re-search me.....

Okay... I gave no fuss and did not even ask why they had to re do the check. They brought me by travel cart BACK to the check point and they MADE ME wait in line AGAIN. It took forty five minutes the first time. Anyway, when it was my turn to place my stuff on the belt for another x-ray I was called over to the same four TSA people who were behind me at D&D....

They had me empty my bags (even tho it was already x-rayed) and they did a frisk + magnetic wand. They searched every crevice of my carry on as if they were sure I had something illegal. By the time they were done my plane should have already of taken off.

They said sorry to me for the inconvenience and would have the cart bring me back to my gate, nope.. The cart took off with ONLY MY CARRY ON!!... SO here I am running to the gate!! I get to the gate and the airline workers said I was late. I told them I passed screening and was called back for another screening...

The airline charged $100 for being late and another $50 for them to change the seating arrangement....


So. Yeah. The TSA is in BED with the airlines to pick random people out in order for the airline to make more money for people who make the plane wait, even if it is TSA's fault!
