Check your tickets people!
Air travel can be stressful, especially for infrequent flyers dealing with delays,
long security lines, and cancellations. Even before boarding, these hurdles can turn
“what should be a simple, often exciting undertaking” into frustration.
Most travelers accept strict airport security as necessary.
As the article notes, “water-tight security at airports can only be a good thing,”
even if it means extra checks or longer waits.
Still, irritation grows when passengers are randomly singled out for additional screening,
which can feel like “simply a time-consuming annoyance” for those with nothing to hide.
Because of this, travelers flying to or from the United States are
advised to pay closer attention to their boarding passes.
The article suggests that what’s printed on your ticket
may explain why you’re selected for extra screening,
making it “an idea to carefully inspect your ticket” before heading through security.
