Eat a whole bunch of really spicy chili the night before going on the flight?

Just kidding. Might be a good idea to bring some kind of backup ID just in case, tho...

Since flights are more likely to be full nowadays, I'd be more concerned about the passengers beside you that ate the chili the night before. Those little vent fans in the ceiling aren't strong enough to move away something as heavy as swamp gas. So you might want a bring a handkerchief to stuff in your nose if your eyes begin tearing.

Of course the "best defense is a good offense- gas warfare" strategy (your eating Taco Bell the night before) works best if you know you have an aisle seat. that way you have a less obstructed path to the lavatory when the inevitable call of nature hits you like a ton of bricks.

i have state licenses that have a photo on them. i already called the airline but i do not trust when a customer service rep says "i have made a note. you are good to go."

im not brownish at all, except for Florida tan. however, whenever i go on vacation i always do vacation-beard. that may be enough for the "random" pat down.

i am going to vegas with old college friends from around the country. any tips?
