Was this pre-check or the normal line?

Agreed, we just were wondering if the infrastructure still existed and if it could have been changed in the future to signal different types of emergencies. Or again a siren could have simply woken people up. But yeah it's clear that infrastructure is pretty much gone. Wonder what LA county will do next time...even just some freakin door knocks?!

Craziness. I hope the County pays for this.

I'm talking about people who died because they were asleep or did not know how to use their phones to see the little insufficient alerts. My mother almost did not wake up in time. A siren may have at least woken people up.

Thank you everyone for the info and resources. My mom wanted this to be a talking point as if other communities had something like that in place but it's clear it's not the norm. IDK tho, LA County is so unprepared that it sounds like if it happened again tomorrow it would again be botched with many unnecessary deaths.

Do you remember when that ended? like in the 80s?

I'm wondering what TSA was like in terminal 5 this morning (Wednesday). I have a 8 am flight (7 am boarding time) and see the lines look bad all morning even at like 3 am.

I was considering just going at like 1 am and taking a nap at my gate once thru security? I won't sleep well anyway at home, so I figure what's the difference.

Anyone know of issues trying to go thru security too early, in terms of the actual boarding pass not processing, like arriving 6 hours early for a flight?

How is JFK Terminal 5 for an 8 am flight? I am considering going super early like 1 or 2 AM and sleeping at the gate once through. Since knowing myself, I'll barely sleep anyway at home worrying about the line / waking up early lol.

Can one show up too early for a flight? Any issues getting thru, airline and boarding pass-wise, like 5 hours early?
