For hours now the news has been full of reports that mass murder in the skies has been averted, thanks to arrests of suspected terrorists in the U.K. New security measures are in place, and lines are reported long.

What does this mean for anyone trying to fly out of Sacramento International now? A friend just bailed on a business trip East. Her morning flight hadn’t boarded by afternoon.

We’re supposed to go to San Diego Saturday. Part of me says, “oh heck, just drive!”

Have to see how things develop in the next 48 hours. What would you do for a short trip? Is it worth the drive time to skip the airport?

from the KCRA story on long lines at SMF:

Some patients who arrived at the airport early in the day were surprised. Traveler Penny Cowan said she wished she had a little more notice about the restrictions.

“I just wish I would have known,” Cowan said.

Nice one Penny…the terrorists never got the hang of the whole notification concept…
