TSA Complaints

Tell your side of the story about traveling under the Transportation Security Administration.

About This Site

Heres a quick rundown:

This site is a response to the hundreds of comments taking the TSA to task for their reputation of being ineffective, lax and generally obnoxious. I hope for it to become a forum for complaints, housing the opinion of travelers inconvenienced by the company thats supposed to be keeping them safe.

Eventually — once enough input has been given — I'll be excitedly mining the results on a regular basis (probably weekly-to-monthly) and publishing the results to watch trends in both the short and long (historical) term to find the most troubled airports, when the trouble happens the most, and to whom it happens.

Stereotypes and murmurs will be dispelled and supported along the way.

I want to make it very clear that this site supports and applauds the TSA agents who do their best to serve the American public. I understand the difficulty of their roles, and am very grateful for what they stand for and are to accomplish. Although I don't necessarily agree with all of their policies, and feel some are arbitrary or advised with ill-faith in the public, I support the cause they represent: safety in travel. For as many poor experiences as I've had with the TSA, I've had just as many, if not more, positive ones. There are just too many stories, though, of travel being ridiculously and needlessly impeded by TSA staff.

Quick disclaimer: this site is in no way affiliated with the TSA, or any of the airports listed here.
