Tbh I legit always wear cargo shorts/trousers for flights. Benefit is twofold, first you can carry quite a lot of shit this way, secondly the lower pockets are way more accessible sitting down on an aircraft.

Except the people waiting behind you while you empty it will be just as inconvenienced and won't even be paid..

Is this jacket or a shirt/dress? If it’s a jacket, You can take it off and put it through x-rays. If it’s a shirt/dress, I’m not sure of the consequences of walking through security naked or in your underwear…

Wouldn’t you just put it through the xray and then the TSA will pull you aside if needed?

Pretty sure your arrest for "willfully obstructing a federal agent" or some such bullshit would still cause the others considerable deiay..

Is this really all that different than them having to go through a backpack?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I haven't been to an airport with in years where only one person at a time can unload their stuff into the x-ray machine, usually they have spots for five or six persons.

This is not an issue:

I've done ziplock bags for cargo short contents before, speeds security checks up a lot.
