Smile follow-up
Just wanted to follow-up with the results of our trip...

There was no SSSS! Just verification of her birth date on her license and that was it. Thanks again for all the responses.

Sounds like she has a name "similar" to a No Fly Naughty Person.

It's been a while since I've had a secondary done, but she feels violated? Please. It's a very minor search. I think she's being way too particular by getting upset about it and the same goes for you for posting about it. It happens to people all of the time. It isn't as if you're taken into some dingy back room.

One's opinion of the impact is immaterial to the claimed need for the search.

Sorry, General, but the unwanted touching by another is usually considered a battery.

How did we ever get to the point where American citizens accept pat-down searches as routine and minor?

Nice to hear that it worked out. I've had a problem once in a while because my credit card did not have 'Jr.' at the end and my aa.com profile, and consequently the e-ticket, did. You never know.

(Now, everything is the same!)
