I've never been through this transfer security as the times I've transited NZ6 - NZ2 or NZ1 - NZ5 have been when I've headed outside to enjoy some fresh SoCal air after dropping off my bags.

It does pose the question though of why they don't use this area for NZ2/NZ1 transit pax as presumably it's always going to be quicker than the regular mezzanine floor TSA screening?
