Recently going thru security at LAX..they were not verifying identy versus the boarding pass after check in.
No double check of idenity at the plane either.
This makes it possible for anyone to use a valid boarding pass.
Looked to me like it was intentional. I pointed the breach out to the Security Supervisor..and he just shrugged.
Guess they got to get all those illegals on the flights somehow.

LAX is a general nightmare. They run your baggage through the x-ray but then will not lock it. I have never been through an airport which refused to lock luggage that had been screened. Theoretically, that means that a baggage handler could put a device into my luggage in the interval between screening and loading onto the plane. Don't know what kind of security exists for baggage handlers, but there is an appreciable immigrant population in the airline service industry.
