Rough Morning at BNA

I'm not sure how to explain or quantify the length of the security line this morning at the Nashville International Airport. Allow me to try some descriptors: "Gorgeous." "Post 9/11" (like "11:00-in-the-morning-of-September-11-2001 post 9/11"). "Mind boggling." "Blood-pressure elevating." "Worse than an amusement park on Labor Day." To be more explicity: The security line basically intertwined with the check-in lines then wound out the door.

I get the feeling that several flights will be missed today and wonder if any suspicious behavior is to blame for the long lines. At any rate, I have a two-year-old child, and I've never heard so much whining.

Oh, and I would have posted this from the airport, but airports charge $8 per day for wireless access. Weak.

Update: I had to run at full speed to make my plane, but I did, and I had a pleasant flight. I'm posting this from a Red Roof Inn in Overland Park, KS. Red Roof, it seems, also charges a daily fee for wireless access, but I happen to be picking up free wireless from the Super 8 next door.

Security checks and waits are really very tiring. they are irritating and tend to ruin the happy go mood of vacation. But they also pose a question about some potential threat that might be causing them. gatwick valet parking

Security waits are always disturbing. They create unwanted hassle in the travelers. You can use a parking facility like gatwick parking south terminal and get on with the boarding process without any delay.
