| - So, I have PreCheck, and I have an artificial hip. I actually, stupidly, thought that PreCheck would actually get through TSA faster. Nope. So in Phoenix, the PreCheck line has the metal detector, which means I have to wait to be wanded. So I normally tell them about my hip in the PreCheck line, so they send me over to another line with the body scanners, and my carry-on stays in the first line, but of course in those other lines you have to take off your shoes, coat, etc. So I have to constantly tell them I'm PreCheck even if everyone else in line isn't, and of course they look at me like I'm an idiot. Why are you in this line if your PreCheck?
I guess nobody at TSA ever realized that MAYBE someone with PreCheck may actually have an artificial joint. I guess nobody ever figured that out.
Maybe TSA needs to all get together at a meeting, and figure out an organized way to handle EVERY type of passenger they might have. Then make sure EVERY TSA person knows this procedure.
