TSA to Create new Green "Family" Lane

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

We've had this system in Seattle for a while now & as a parent who travels frequently with her kids, I can confirm that it is the slowest (which makes it tough with very young kids).

That said, I've noticed that at many airports TSA has also figured out how to make the family line more convenient for families. In San Francisco and some other airports, kids are offered a sticker for walking through the metal detector, there are usually extra staff on hand to help parents get their gear off the conveyor belt, and there's extra space (sometimes with child-sized chairs) for getting shoes back on.
