Got zapped (selected) for secondary screening at customs, which took another 20 minutes and of course, by then missed the connecting flight (took another 10 to get to the gate). Then spent another 2 hours in line to find out it would take 2 days to get back home.
Luckily that flight is for February, so I would say one schedule change is almost guaranteed. It has an overnight layover in PHL as well, that I was planning to rebook to eliminate if possible anyway. And its the return leg, so if the worst happens I don't lose out on actual vacation time.
