I just got back from Atlanta on a business trip. I was limited in time so I had to fly…which means dealing with security. I was only going for 2 days and wanted to go light and fast. I only took a carry-on so I had to strip everything. Dropped my knife, fingernail clippers, and everything else that looked like a weapon. I also had to go through my first aid kit and drop the scissors and needle. I can still take my flashlight and suggest everyone always carry a small powerful light on them as a utility and a weapon.
The funny thing was my lighter. I didn’t know if I could take it with me, so I asked the first TSA agent I saw. He said we are not currently enforcing that regulation right now. What? I had to ask him twice because I didn’t understand. TSA needs a little better people skills.
Stay Safe,
Ben
