Independent of the security theater problem, we (collectively) beat the air travel system like a rented mule.

Do we? Because I feel like the airlines beat passengers like pieces of cattle. I know I'm not alone in that sentiment.

When I was a kid there was no security. My Mom and Dad would make us put on a tie to go get somebody at the airport.

And if you could afford it, they called you part of "the jet set." I bet this - where more people can use air travel - is better. It's just not special any more. UX is a secondary consideration.
