Hoping This Post Will Lift You Up

Better check your bags first.

Wouldn't you know it? There is a damn line, but not for some:

"Approved PreCheck members enter a separate security lane at the airport and go through metal detectors without the standard removal of shoes and coats. For a fee of $85, travelers in the PreCheck program will not have to remove their shoes, take off their belts and coats, or pull laptops and liquids out of carry-on bags. The fee covers a five-year membership to the program run by the Transportation Security Administration. “It allows us to prescreen and be more efficient in the way that people check in,” TSA administrator John S. Pistole said at an event announcing the center at Logan on Tuesday."

What that shows you is the airlines and government know 9/11 was an inside job false flag.

"$100m upgrade for Logan’s international terminal" by Katie Johnston | Globe Staff   March 05, 2014

The Massachusetts Port Authority will undertake a $100 million renovation of Terminal E, Logan Airport’s international terminal, as new global destinations and a steady rise in international travel help boost the local economy.

Does it? Or does it simply benefit those who frequently fly?

The renovations, announced Tuesday by Governor Deval Patrick, include a new connection between Terminal C and E behind security, new self-serve kiosks to process arriving passengers’ passports at Customs, and upgrades to concessions and gate areas. The project is expected to be completed in two years.

“Massachusetts is opening up,” Patrick said at a Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce breakfast. “Looking out, not just in, and that is helping grow jobs and opportunity for everybody.”

Airlines have added a flurry of international nonstops out of Boston in recent years. Logan has service to 36 foreign cities, up from 26 a decade ago, and three new foreign carriers are coming onboard this year: Emirates, starting service to Dubai on Monday; Turkish Airlines, launching a flight to Istanbul in May; and Hainan Airlines, kicking off a Beijing route in June.

Massport is in talks to bring in a Tel Aviv flight on El Al Israel Airlines, said Thomas Glynn, chief executive of Massport. A Milan route is also on the list. International travel is the fastest-growing segment at Logan....

I saw somewhere Syrian terrorists were coming in through Turkey
