    Phones are irrelevant. No matter how rushed they are, and even though they’d probably have TSA PreCheck, they’d still be slowed down enough by post-911 security to count heads. And the very fact Kevin’s not getting into trouble would be a red flag for Mom.

      Funny how I only realised that airports really were like that until 9/11 about two years ago. I always had dismissed it as typical movie unrealism.

        Yep, no more reaching the airport at the last second and being hurried onto a plane.

        “Sorry, you didn’t show up two hours early - there’s no way we’re letting you on”.
