Catching a Flight? Budget Hours, Not Minutes, for Security

I think it's highly dependent on which airport you're at and the current mood of the people working there.

Last year I was flying home, and there was a sign in the security line saying they we don't need to remove our shoes or belt, I cannot remember which. When I got up to the front of line, I was told, yes, I need to remove both.

For CLEAR, PreCheck and airline-specific special class passengers you can skip removing shoes/belt/jacket, depending on the policy, when traveling through US airports. Non-US airports, and certain international destinations, don't require them removed. And sometimes they just don't give a shit and will let you through regardless.
