Upthread I referenced TSA incompetence, but I really do think this is intentional now. And it feels like one day it's DL, next day AA, next day UA, next day WN, etc. It's almost like TSA is rotating through airports so that no airline can accuse the TSA of targeting them specifically.
I agree that it's intentional, but also incompetency drives it. It could be that AA customers are just more vocal that those of other airlines.
