Got tagged with the dreaded SSSS returning from a recent last-minute trip to London. Not being able to get a mobile boarding pass should've been my clue. Flying round-trip on AA on a last-minute (day before departure) business class ticket purchased through our company's travel agency on my corporate card. I have GE. Not sure how much stock I put into what the security people told me at the gate, but they said I was pre-selected by DHS. Even showed me a print-out they had with 4 names for the whole flight. Mine was on it. No suffixes or prefixes or anything of the like on my name, and never any issues with Pre Check, including on the way out.

The screening only took a few minutes, but it was just annoying. Especially watching the guy unpack my carefully packed suitcase. He was as nice and apologetic about it as could be. But...
