Here in the UK, British Airways were basically saying 'if you don't absolutely have to travel today, then don't'; they then fully refunded passengers, or re-scheduled them for free.

Okay, well, perhaps the explanation is that, by the late hour of the day, most folks had reacted accordingly. After all, it was pre-dawn EDT when all this stuff broke, so we're talking a lapse of 12-14 hours, for sure. Heh.

The lines are moving just fine.", then you would have been stuck behind the longest security line in the history of mankind, right? :) I think you hit the nail on the head: no one knows. Side note: you're becoming quite the seasoned business traveller, aren't you? You realize that had the advice been: “Oh, don’t worry.

I travelled on Thursday. Either travellers are amazingly more intelligent than we tend to give them credit for (which I'm not entirely sure of) or TSA's more intelligent than we tend to give them credit for (which I'm not entirely sure of either).
