TSA is a national agency - why do they have different standards at
different airports?
Your story makes me wonder if maybe the airports have some say in what
the TSA agents at their facility do, i.e. adding extra checks or
looking for things that they don't look for at other airports.
I think it's because of equipment/technology differences. The more
modern scanners for example, require less intrusive-ness to the
travelers. Sometimes a particular airport hasn't gotten funding yet for upgrades, or hasn't phased in the new stuff yet. I think the bigger
airports generally have more updated equipment.
Could also be a poor training issue.
Certainly true.
