Especially during holiday travel. there is rarely anyone in line, while the regular line can be 15 minutes long.
No groping, not scanning, no nothing. I just sashay through the X-ray machine with my belt on and my shoes on and all metal out of my pockets.
If someone sets off the metal detector, they get scanned. I just put my phone, wallet, keys, change in my backpack. No fuss.
how do you get thru with no buzz on the belt. 85% of the time i got thru with no issues but one time the dude tells me i should have taken belt off. why didnt it set it off before? geez
also id def toss my fleece jacket in the bin cause the thick zipper. heck one time i had TSA tell me to put back on my watch! whats up with that?
word of warning. breathsaver wrappers are metal. i learned this at a courthouse years ago. when i was at the empire state building and got the buzz he told me that cannot be the issue. i handed him the lifesavers and went back thru no buzz. ...made my day
