I'm traveling through LAX with my NEXUS card as the only ID I will show to TSA next week. Given that it is one of the busiest airports in the world, I don't assume there will be problems. If there are, I will let everyone here know how my meeting with the FSD went.
Once again, I had issues with my NEXUS/SENTRI card. This time at CVG, which has been reasonably good in the past. Ended up with 4 different TSOs and supervisors peering at it under the magic blacklight. No one had a clue what it was, they attempted to both call it in and look it up their big 3 ring binder (??? - I thought this was now all electronic) to no avail.
Unfortunately, I didn't have time to spare with this trip (poor planning on my part) as I was running late to a flight that I couldn't miss. After 10-15 minutes of watching this game unfold, I had to relent and pull another ID. Complaint submitted.
