Not too bad in LHR; they seemed prepared for it. Flying back through PHL was another story, even though the TSA Supervisor said "wow another one?" had to wait about 20 minutes just to begin the process because there was one ahead of me. The complete SSSS tour: Pats, multiple swabs, turning all devices on. Really hoping this is a rare and random thing.
Typical AA contractor related selection. Most such hits aren't a sign of being permanently blacklisted nor even a sign of being blacklisted domestically on domestic-only itineraries. It'll probably pass on its own.
