Expedited security check at SeaTac
It seems like most of the time when I’m flying back from Seattle, the lines at the airport are always really, really, really long. Today I got here at my usual less-than-one-hour-before time and figured I just would be standing in a snaking line, waiting for someone to come by and fish the overdue people like me out. Just as I got in line for the newly combined B/C Terminal security (remodeling), I noticed a tiny sign that said “Handicapped/Airline Club Members Only”.
Since I had my Southwest Rapid Rewards card on me (rare, lucky occurrence) and I had already checked in and printed out my boarding pass before I left for the airport (!?!) I was able to go through an much shorter line that no-one else seemed to know about. Woo-hoo!
I think they accepted frequent flyer cards from a number of other programs, so I’m definitely going to go home and load up all of my program memberships in to some sort of travel companion!
