    ** June 2020 Check In **

    Surprising my kid for her birthday. We're going to tell her on June 10th, her actual birthday, and a week later, we leave for Cali. Just a heads up for everyone here - I wouldn't doubt that everyone on this forum will be able to hear her screams of excitement at roughly noon eastern time on...

    Refillable Bottle and TSA

    A bottle of FROZEN water is not (at that time or state) liquid. It is solid, and as such, SHOULD be permitted through. Full disclosure, I work for TSA...

    Offsite Disney Resorts, What are your recommended ones regarding excellent transportation to parks?

    It's not equally ideal. A lot of the offsite transportation drops off at only one park, and you'd need to take Disney internal transportation to your ultimate destination. If you want to stay offsite but have the early fast passes, you'll probably have to stay somewhere on Hotel Plaza Blvd...

    Just throwing this out there... Airlines generally have a list of things that are covered for damage. United, for example, has a sign posted outside of their baggage service office that reads in part, "Luggage is designed to protect the contents. We are not responsible for normal wear and...

    TSA agents from airports may be sent to the border.

    Coming from the inside...here's what I know about the TSA officers going to the border. Currently, if an officer does go to the border they can do a very limited scope of activities. These include transport of people to health exams (but only if the officer also holds a CDL), serving food, and...

    TSA PreCheck

    Not sure that's accurate re EWR. It's a HUGE departure/arrival point for United's European flights. You may be thinking of ISP (Islip) or HPN (White Plains), but certainly not Newark.

    Luggage reclaim domestic flights

    Baggage claim is nowhere near the check in desks. There's a sticky posted at the top of the transportation board that details the airport specifically, including where to go to reclaim luggage.

    As long as a child is 12 years of age or under - or APPEARS to be under 13 - they are allowed through PreCheck with a PreCheck approved adult. Full disclosure, I work for TSA

    Spirit Air Passenger Usage Fee Removal

    This article is from 2 years ago, but the information within is still (mostly) correct. The fee has gone to 19.99. But they will not charge you that fee if you purchase at the airport. https://onemileatatime.com/buy-spirit-airlines-ticket-at-airport/ Note this is not compatible with the $9...

    How does parking work for annual pass holders?

    My kid and I have APs. We were traveling with our friends who did not have APs. I was running late, so my kid went with them in their car and used her pass for parking. Absolutely no problems or issues at all.

    Gate check stroller

    Unless your stroller has a few parts that come off, no, you really don't need a bag for gate checking. I really don't think it could get that dirty in the hold...

    Flying with a wheelchair

    You will be able to gate check the wheelchair. Take a bag with you to put the parts into - medical equipment does not count toward your carry-on allowance (on most airlines).
