Yeah, and like someone said earlier in the thread, the physical space concerns are a big reason why they’re building the new terminal, so fingers crossed that this will be the last summer travel season where that’s the case.
OT: PIT airport TSA line / CLEAR
- Thread starter Pitt_Boss
- Start date
Great article here on CLEAR:
slate.com
This is the money quote from that article:
"Because airports collect extra revenue from those who sign up for CLEAR, an exasperating experience for non-CLEAR passengers has an upside. After all, the annoyance of watching CLEAR members go ahead of them in security lines could induce more people to enroll in CLEAR"
Because PIT airport now has incentive for people to buy CLEAR - they get a cut - they also have incentive to make the wait miserable for non-CLEAR customer. At the least, they have no incentive to make things better for the non-CLEAR customers. I still say it's no coincidence the lines at PIT airport suddenly became the worst ever right after CLEAR was introduced there.
Clear Is a Pox on America’s Airports
Happy holidays to everyone but the company for skipping the security line.

I have owned a few shares of VISA stock going back about 5 years now. It’s delivered some nice returns. Thanks to all and keep charging !
So I take it that CLEAR is some sort of premium service so you don't wait to go through security, and the airport has rigged the process so that it now takes one longer if they don't buy CLEAR. Sounds about right.
I pay everything with my Sam’s MC. Carry nearly zero cash. Pay it off monthly.
Have earned over $600 in rewards. Free stuff at Sam’s club is awesome..
Yes. Keep on charging.
Yep. I explained to you exactly what you don't understand and why you were completely incorrect. In reading your response, you are now either embarrassed by your mistake or just a simple minded clown.
FWIW, this should be common sense but there's actually research on travel and the state of an economy.
Wage inflation is a direct result of what people wanted and voted for. To the victors go the spoils.
The direct result of higher wages was always going to be higher prices - there's no way around it. I get they want to blame corporations now, and there's likely some examples you can find like always. However, it would take massive collusion and price fixing to raise prices across the board like we've seen.
The fed has been acting irresponsible since 2008. They can and should help during dire times, but they became the economy's crutch for 15 years. Sooner or later you have to pay the piper.
I have no issue with migrants. Document them and make them pay taxes. This country was built on immigrants doing the work Americans didn't want to do.

working at the airport has to kind of suck. getting in and out every day. i am assuming they hve preferential parking and arent like us shlubs waiting in a security line for an hour and a half but still kind of a pain to get to / from work every day. WOuld you want to work as a cashier at a fast food or even one of the retail stores in a major airport and deal with that when you can most likely get the same exact job at any strip mall or store in your neighborhood?
Same thing with a waitstaff at a restaurant in an airport. a lot of effort before and after your shift just getting there. Bartender i think would be decent because lets face it, you tip more because an "airport beer" is a top 5 beer in the grand scheme of life..

Its a federal job though isnt it? Wouldn't you be making decent money eventually? Kinda like a teacher. Start really really low but finish at a good wage
not sure, i mean i hope soo. like most jobs, pay goes up with experience. if any job, federal or not, is capped off at the starting wage, no one will take it.
Do you mean in 2016?
There's 3 main factors- 1. Awful immigration laws not allowing enough workers in. Then Trump gutting the system to allow immigration in the manner you described 2. The awful covid response leading to too many deaths and the great resignation 3. (To a much lesser degree)- Post Covid federal investment. We have a created a lot of jobs in the private and public sectors since 2020.

Covid response was terrible, but not for the reasons you think. We shut down our economy and hid from the the flu, which has turned into the common cold now that everyone's had it. This should NEVER happen again. If you don't like it, stay home and wear a mask.

The “flu “ hit hospitals a helluva lot harder and mortality was worse pre-vaccine
Lots of the initial fear was justified due to it being novel
