Nothing to sign up for. This is just the new technology in place in Hawaii. We really like the changes, although others may feel differently. Things just seem to be working more smoothly.
Any improvement for passengers sounds wonderful to me! The Pandemic had a lovely silver lining of speeding up technology use by government and I for one am grateful.
Anything TSA does will not speed things up, nor will it make LIH TSA agents more user friendly. I’m still annoyed by an experience I had several years ago with a TSA agent at LIH. “How is your day going?” “Fine” “See that it stays that way.” What? That TSA agent would have been fired on the spot had I been his boss. See that it stays that way? Really? Thousands Standing Around has been a joke over its entire existence. And, yes, I have TSA Pre-Check, and have had it for years.
TSA at Lihue is a complete mess with massive bottlenecks that regularly cause passengers to miss their flights. I missed a flight in March thanks to a 45 minute TSA line at Lihue and I wasn’t the only one. The reservation agent said it happens every day, that TSA opens only one lane and either can’t or won’t open a second during high volume peaks resulting in lines of passengers needing to reschedule. Additionally, for supposedly being a small “friendly” island airport, they have the rudest most arrogant TSA officers I’ve ever encountered (except maybe for Chicago). TSA Lihue is the only TSA check I actively try to avoid. So the prospect of anything from TSA Lihue being applied nation wide is scarey indeed!!!
This was not true on July 4th at LIH airport for TSA Pre-check passengers. We had to remove electronic devices and food. TSA was still using Old machines for us.
Phoenix has had machines that don’t require removal of liquids and laptops for several years. The problem is that they only have a couple of them. So, most of the time,you still have to remove liquids and laptops.
What’s crazy is the girl that was running away from a murder she committed, and went to south america with a fake passport! No problemo, and they worry about us ordinary people? take your shoes off put in your computer.. yadda yadda yadda
I’m a bit confused with this “new” technology your are talking about. We (STL) haven’t had to show a boarding pass when going through TSA for well over a year. They take our drivers license, stick it into a little machine, and check us out that way. Are you talking about something different?
Is this something we signs up for? If so, where please?
Thank you so much.
Aloha,
Cindy
