They will never let the power to control us go away again, unless a powerful enough elected politician forces it upon them.
Given the current political climate against the EU, this is not likely to happen anytime soon. They are (once more) wasting ressources at the expense of efficiency and of our freedom but they don't care. They will relish their newfound power, while pretending it is for our own good (as always).
We have lost our right to free circulation within Schengen area by air. This is sad.
Remains travel by car and train.
