Me, if I were flying now, I would traipse down to the discount store for a NEW cheap sweatsuit and tennies to wear during the flight and save myself a hassle.

That's what I told my girlfriend after I took my first post-911 flight. I took a 2-hop round-trip flight and got frisked 4 times. Next time it's sweats, slip-on shoes (or slippers), no hat, no jewelry/metal and minimal carry-on.

One day, security cleared travellers will adopt the Star Trek skin tight chic apparel. It's coming. Should be interesting when some of America's overweight pour into one of those babies.

you must not fly much. try flying on business and have a big presentation, and oops, you stupid fool, you CHECKED your luggage, and now I am in houston, and my luggage is in Denver. (true story) had to do the presentation in what i flew in, gym shorts and ragged t-shirt. Now I NEVER check anything, I cram everything into my carryon, and the iron at the hotel is my new best friend. Never, ever check luggage, once you let go of it, its hard tellin where its really gonna go. those same goons that do security?? their brothers/sisters work in baggage.....
