Could be I'm just thick but where's the problem? If you book your own ticket I mean. It could be a problem to a corporate travel department or some such but I have always had my passport/ DL in front of me when using a travel Website so I don't make those kind of errors. And you don't have to get your feet sticky if you bring along a pair of disposable plastic booties (perfectly legal). Also the problem mentioned about putting clean stuff in dirty trays?--Bring along a travel pack of booty wipes for such occasions.These things could be a problem to inexperienced travelers but with this well-traveled bunch here??

They talked about the problem with all the new rules would be the potential delays to travelers getting through security. I wasn’t able to post the entire headline of the article so I shortened it. But if you don’t see a problem then maybe there isn’t one. lol

I'm wondering if I now need to change my tickets? :? Delta wants the name as it appears on the credit card, which in my case is Paul + middle initial + eleven-letter last name. My MN I.D. and passport both say Paul+full middle name++last name. :? So, do I need to get on the phone with Delta and have my ticket name changed? Very confusing. Unlike Cujos above, my last name is unique. Furthermore, as far as I know I am one of two Paul Lastnames in the entire U.S.A. :roll:

Don't you guys all feel safer? I know I don't. :roll:
