CLEAR has been the biggest frustration for me at C! They rarely have enough folks working and are as slow as Christmas. My kid traveled with me (18-year old not on my CLEAR account) and made it thought Premiere Access before I got through CLEAR.
I fly at least 40 segments a year for the past 12 years. I am not pre-check or clear. 9 times out of 10 i get threw premier access faster than my buddies in the other lines. This is mostly b/c i fly out of IAH and then smaller (non-frequented airports)
Every so often I get in a big airport without a premier line or first class line and it sucks. Reality of those situations is that i still get through security in mostly equal amounts of time.
2 hours for security is not possible outside of Orlando. Orlando is the most incoherent, terrible airport i've been to. The amount of idiots with strollers and middle school band trips is out of this world. And that still only takes 45 minutes.
Totally agree about Orlando airport (MCO). Absolutely nothing makes sense there. I had a connecting flight in MCO a few weeks ago, and it took me an hour and a half to get from one terminal to another and my connecting gate. I had to go outside, take a shuttle, recheck in through security, take another shuttle, and walk a long way to my gate. Mind you, theres really no signs or instructions telling you how to get to the other terminal, I had to ask someone. In IAH or DFW, it takes you 5 minutes to get from one terminal to the next.
Thats the one US airport I cant stand flying out of, and not to mention the other travelers who frequent that airport.
