Just Wait Until You Hear These Tsa Horror Stories

By Sharon Perry


One of the big reasons why so many people end up going through these kinds of experiences is because everyone has to be subjected to the Transportation Security Administration at one point or another if they ever hope to travel by plane. Many people are fearful when dealing with these agents because of all of the nightmares that other people have had to go through, and have shared in online forums. It is sometimes a good idea to get to know these TSA horror stories so that you can learn from the mistakes of others, or at least be prepared for what is to come.

One sad fact many people are aware of is that those who are the most vulnerable are often the ones who receive the most poor treatment. This is unfortunate but true, and it is because the agents think that they'll be able to get away with treating these people badly, as opposed to those who are less vulnerable where they might actually get caught. Those who are disabled, elderly, young, or female are the ones who are most likely to be targeted.

If you're not very experienced in flying, it is a good idea to double-check the rules and make sure that you are fully aware of everything that you have in your pockets when you are going through security. Things can get pretty hectic very quickly in these airports, particularly the more busy ones. People don't always expect to be grilled all of a sudden by a security agent, and failing to understand their instructions might lead to a stressful situation.

When you're deprived of sleep, you're less likely to be able to be patient with a surly agent. This is almost always the case when you go on a long plane ride. The situation is made even harder if you have a traveling with kids.

Traveling to a different country comes with many challenges. One of the biggest ones is the language barriers that occur when you're trying to go through checkpoints. If you don't have any idea what the officer is asking you to do, the situation might become very serious very quickly.

When an agent is doing a routine pat down, it can be hard to tell when the action is inappropriate or not. There are randomly selected pat downs, and it can be hard to tell if these are really random or not. It is also difficult to challenge the motives of an agent because of the position of power that they're in.

These days, it's quite easy to get to know the reputation of any airport that you are about to travel to or from. Knowing what to expect can make things a lot easier once you get there. Some places have a very good reputation for the friendliness of their agents, while others are known to be the very opposite.

One of the biggest fears of many people is getting yelled at by someone. This can be especially stressful when the person is in a position of power. Agents are just trying to do the important job of keeping everyone safe, but it is usually unnecessary for them to raise their voice at people who really do want to follow their orders.
