Sheesh. Alright, we get it. You love your kids. Having kids = much stuff to carry. Much stuff to carry = more difficult holiday travel. But isn’t it enough that you already get tax deductions? And that you have a built-in social network while those of us in our twenties stare at the possibility of a cold, barren existence in solitude, eventually cloistered in a mountain shack with no one to carry on our names? No, that’s not enough for you, is it, parents? You had to go and bargain for special privileges at KCI:
If you plan to fly this Thanksgiving and you’ve got kids, you’ll be glad to know about new family lanes at airport security.
At Kansas City International Airport, any gate with more than one security lane will have a green-coded lane where the experience is supposed to be more relaxed and family-friendly. Family lanes will be available at the central checkpoints at other major airports.
Oh, we see. And what about those of us who choose to remain unattached? Are we supposed to stay in the Loser Line, with all those people who refuse to check any bags? With the ubiquitous Guy Who Spills Things? With the woman who has never heard of the 3 oz. rule? Harumph. Happy holidays indeed, KCI.
