This is very similar to the experience I had at NRT last month for my flight to JFK. No shoe carnival. Just a secondary check of everyone's bags for liquids. Everyone was very courteous and polite. No one barking orders or threats or carrying out retaliatory secondary screenings.

Why are Asians so much better at treating travelers with respect?
