This is the Practical Safety and Security forum, the place to ask questions and get information to help you travel safely and with minimal hassle.

If you wish to argue or debate the TSA screeners training or ability to conduct Secondary Security Screening Selectees inspections and/or compare their competence with that of airline security contractors at non-US airports, please do so in the relevant thread in the Checkpoints and Borders Policy Debate forum. Several posts have been moved to that thread.

Future non-informational posts will be summarily deleted without further notice.

Thank you for understanding and your anticipated cooperation,
