Personal solution- get Precheck as others have stated. Mine was granted at no charge through AA's frequent traveler program.

Solution for TSA (which is nothing more than a failed bureaucracy).

#1> Have someone in front of the TSA agents that are constantly moving people. Having the agent call each person after they are done is a waste of time. It may not seem like much, but when you multiple the 10' each person has to walk after they are called by the thousands of people that come through each day it causes a problem. This is SOP in many other countries.

#2> Have an express lane for those w/o carry on or anything that has to come out of the bag.

#3> Make the conveyor belts in front the Xray machines longer, and have agent moving people past those who haven't flown in a decade and still don't realize that you can't have liquids greater than 3oz. I have a solid system when I approach the belt. Rollaboard first, laptop case second, and if I don't have precheck lap top last. Then when it come out of the machine I can pull my rollaboard off first, slide my laptop case on top of it, and then insert my laptop.

#4>Send TSA agents to other countries for training and observation. I can get through HKIA security, customs, and to my gate in less than 30 minutes. They are doing something right.
