CLEAR Lane in Denver

CLEAR lane at TSA security line in Denver! Awesome! Not one person in front of me. I zipped through TSA line literally in less than two minutes.

Acts of Kindness

They make things much harder for everyone, especially the flight attendants. Let them wait for that bloody Mary until the plane is fully boarded. Geez, people have some manners.

Travel Observation

Travel Hygiene

Is it too much to ask for anyone traveling on a flying bus to perhaps bathe within, oh I don't know, within a week of travel? I can literally smell this person from 15 feet away. Geez
