Why don't they just let people take their assault rifles onto the plane such that they can defend themselves? Are they stupid?

Is there any other country on earth that stops working altogether once a year?

Tired of waiting winning yet?

Your get what you voted! Enjoy your fucking war.

Good thing the US has a high speed railway network like China, Japan, Europe or Morocco, so you don't need to get on a plane. Oh.. wait...

did you mean Trump JFK Airport?

The sad thing about this is that most Trump supporters probably don’t fly because either they’re always in their own bubble and/or can’t afford to. So they can’t relate to this, so it’s a non-issue sadly.

Yeah but.. Is America great again yet?

JFC

I’d honestly just cancel my holiday instead going through that trauma.

Yeah guys send the Gestappo. They fix everything

My coworker noped out of a trip across country because they’d have a grandchild with them, and didn’t want any issues with missing flights, long waits, or ICE shenanigans. If they didn’t have their grandchild, they probably would have taken the train instead.

Edit: more info

Are the flights backed up to, or are they just leaving half empty all the time?

And not a mask to be found as a new variant of Covid surges…

There are several terminals with security checkpoints, this does not represent “JFK Airport” as a whole. This shown terminal is T5, JetBlue’s terminal.

Edit: who downvoted, lol. I’ve been to JFK 4 times this week. Nothing I said is untrue. It literally says Jetblue check in on the sign. Go pound sand.

Jesus Fucking Krist airport right now.

I’ve only been to JFK once, but I get the sense that the lines there always look like this. Not saying all the other stuff isn’t an issue, but don’t give JFK any credit. Hands down the worst airport I’ve been to. Avoid at all cost.

I had to sleep in JFK Airport once. I don't recommend it. The rats that come out at night are the size of a ~25 pound dog.

Hey MAGA, thanks for making London Heathrow a better airport.

I feel like I'm missing something, what's the context?

It feels worse in real life. I was there on Sunday. Cannot recall ever being in longer lines.

Oh yeah baby America is so back

What? Why? What changed?

The greatest country on earth

Zero sympathy for USian planet incinerating jet-set crowd. They got what they voted for.

Where are people even going? I know we're all kind of on that bandwagon where we just disassociate with the bad events happening everywhere right now as a defense mechanism but how does traveling make any sense right now? I just can't

This is what happens when you're state/city doesn't upgrade your airport either. I just flew through SFO and DIA this past week and security was under 5 minutes because they dont rely on TSA staff for the majority of their functions.

I flew out of EWR on Friday and my flight left (the gate) on time. Now, we took off 30m late because of the traffic at our final destination, but security was 10m and we were on the plane on time. It was incredible. The longest wait was to get the kids some chicken fingers, that was like 30m.

I can feel the stress and exhaustion emanating from this image.

Such a stimulated economy

I had to go through the Atlanta airport shortly after the “4 hour wait” stories started hitting. I showed up 3 hours earlier than normal to be safe, and when I got there they had every station manned and ICE was basically just waiving everyone through. Took me about 2 minutes to get through security.

Kind of illustrates how pointless TSA is in the first place, but I’d rather have had that four hour wait than have to be within 50 ft of ICE.

Flying is such a giant humiliation ritual, I have no idea why people even bother.

Wow! When is this from? Thanksgiving 2017?
