Only in San Juan? Probably not. I guess that’s a gross exaggeration. But, here’s a tip for going through security in the American terminal: Don’t get into the special line for “priority” passengers to have your ID checked. It is anything but faster, special or priority! The TSA agent assigned to that line is also assigned to the wheelchair and employees line, and all of them will go before you. As you stand there waiting to be scrutinized and judged as to how closely your ID picture actually looks like you now (“you’ve changed your hair”), you can watch all the not priority passengers who were way behind you in the boarding pass line breeze right through!

And don’t get me started on the bright pink priority stickers and baggage claim.

About jetsytravels

I travel a lot and want to travel even more. I really enjoy it! I have no travel expertise or special knowledge. I do have opinions, observations, impressions and photographs to share. If I am not particularly edifying - perhaps I will be entertaining! Who am I? I have an MBA and founded a catalog business about 17 years ago, called Isla, now also online as IslaOnline.com. I am a wife, and mother of two grown (nearly) sons. I split my residential time between Puerto Rico and Wisconsin.
