Scrolling through this thread I see a lot of discussion about everything but the reality on the ground. Has anyone flown in the past day or so who could enlighten me as to what it's really like? As has been mentioned in this thread, there's been a lot of spin (TSA's tweet, for example; I take everything TSA says with a kilogram of salt), but I've not seen too much reporting (here or elsewhere) on actual experiences.

I had a colleague not come to a meeting in New York from Atlanta since apparently ATL is a cluster ... but I've no idea. I'm flying out of IAD early tomorrow morning (Friday) ... wondering just how much I should alter my routine (which, as a pre-check person is designed to maximize my sleeping and minimize airport time )

So what's the real scoop?
