IND, today.

There was a TSA dog sniffing luggage/passengers (pretty discreetly I might add) at the entrance to the line. I got the the document checker and was told no laptop out, no shoes off, no belt off, no light jacket off and the only things that had to come out of pockets was metal. All passengers were being directed through the WTMD.

I about fell over and died...


I asked the TSA woman running the line what was up and she said it was a test/pilot program. I asked if it was related to the dog, and she actually acknowledged that it was.

I'm not getting my hopes up yet, but if this spreads a modicum of joy will return to air travel. I even took the time to express my pleasure with the process to the three striper in charge.
