Default TSA fail...

LAS
A significant change in the way crews are shuttled to/from the airport and hotel in LAS is expected beginning June 15. Today, crews are shuttled to/from the airfield directly to/from the hotel. However, TSA intends to suspend the operational permit allowing this to occur effective June 15, 2013. Effective with this change, crews will be picked up and dropped off in front of the terminal, similar to most airports. TSA will be adding a Known Crewmember lane in Terminal 3 on June 4, 2013, before the suspension is effective.

Rumor is it's a UAL fail, as one of your captains got the van driver to let his wife on the van to the hotel.

Looks like the bad guys have another way to try and get explosives on a plane,

"If you forgot to charge your phone before leaving for a US-bound flight, you may just find your device confiscated by security from now onwards.

The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has announced enhanced security measures at “certain” overseas airports for flights into the US. Travelers will be asked to turn on their devices including mobile phones, and those without power will be banned from the flight."

I kinda remember them doing this awhile back, but then stopped.
I had to once actually go through the menu to show them it was a working phone too. This was when I had a flip phone so close to right after 9/11....?

Yep... And it wasn't just cell phones. Laptops too, I think.
