Man alive... I'm not fond of flying and now this. Supposed to take a trip to Orlando in October, and DC in November.
I've opted to drive when and where I can.
No rental car needed, no undue delays (my flight a couple weeks ago had a 3.5 hour delay and meant that I didn't arrive at my destination until 2am local time and 4am in my normal time). As it was cross country I didn't have much choice but for closer trips (~400 miles) I've been driving for years.
Some joke that we'll all have to fly nude.
But it sounds like we're on the way to banning carry on items.
Flying is going to be too much of a hassle. You can't bring liquids on board. Not even bottled water. Are the airlines going to service you on board? The way they have cut back food and drink service recently, seems unlikely. That's why some have brought their own snacks and drinks on planes.
This may become unworkable. The terrorists are causing a lot of disruption even by having their plot discovered, whether they know that now or not.
You and me both!! My husband and I are flying to Vancouver to go on a long-planned cruise to Alaska on Sept. 2nd. I was nervous before -- I think I am going to have to get some tranquilizers for this trip!
