Really? From what I've reading on Flyertalk.com, most US airports' security lines have not gone longer. In fact, many reports that the wait is shorter than before. And unless you're flying out of the UK, the main difference between now and two weeks ago are no liquid, no gel, and everybody takes off their shoes at security (which many were already doing so voluntarily).
So, what exactly has changed for the road warrior? Is the OP a salesperson for shampoo, toothpaste, mouthwash or some other liquid/gel?
I just don't get it.
