One question: Did anyone fly through a contractor airport (SFO, MCI, ?) and a TSA-controlled airport and notice any differences? I know there are lots of other variables, but, did anything jump out at you?
I fly through MCI all the time, and did so at least 8x during the shutdown. Never a line at the Pre-Check area in terminal C (AA and startup carriers). I didn't experience any slowdowns at government-staffed TSA checkpoints in other cities either, however.
