TSA at JFK T2
Monday we arrived at 5 a.m. T4 from TLV & got to T2 for our DL connection a little before 6 a.m. and TSA was a nightmare. There was one doc checker for the regular line & one for the priority line and both lines had "10,000" people. The checker in the priority line was literally taking 45 sec. to match each ID to the BP (work slowdown?) and the other one was not much faster. It was so bad that the 2 DL reps in the area were calling people with close flights into a "super duper" priority line, further slowing down the same two doc checkers who had to alternate their lines with the "super duper" line. The FSD should be fired for poor personnel scheduling - crowds at JFK at 6 a.m. on a Monday should be no surprise!

At least it was nice of the DL reps to expedite passengers. If I were running late I would certainly appreciate it. |

10,000 people, are you sure? ;)

I've had this at JFK T2 as well, just insanely slow document checkers (close to a minute per document). I guess they figure, if they're going to do a pointless task, might as well go whole hog and do it really badly too.

oh gosh, you guys are really bad at this game.
Those slow document checkers are on our side. The worse the service gets, the faster TSA goes down. ssshhh... they're taking it down from the inside. teehee. |
