Will Turkey Day Fliers Cry Foul? - WSJ.com

Will Turkey Day Fliers Cry Foul? - WSJ.com: "The fear is that Thanksgiving travelers—many of them students, families and older people who fly once or twice a year—will be unfamiliar with TSA procedures and slow to get through checkpoints. Full-body scanners require removal of wallets, belts, jewelry and everything inside pockets.

'With people getting partially molested at checkpoints, all that is going to be a real shock for them,' said Greg Wells, senior vice president of operations at Southwest Airlines. 'TSA will create an issue for us. It's going to slow things down.'

Southwest will have employees with walkie-talkies at checkpoints to hold airplane departures if passengers are stuck in long lines."
