Be Prepared for possible additional air travel delays the day before Thanksgiving
November 21, 2010 - It is up to you to decide if you feel that the latest enhanced security measures such as the choice between the total body "Advanced Imaging Technology" scan or a pat-down are appropriate or not. However, one group who feels that these screening measures are inappropriate are organizing a "National Opt Out Day" in protest. They have chosen November 24, a travel day which often has significant delays due to high holiday passenger volume. You can read more about this protest at http://www.optoutday.com/. You may consider allowing extra time to compensate for any delays at security screening that this protest may cause.
