At least this thread was informative. Usually, somebody will derail by harrumphing how they haven't flown commercially since [XXXX] and then it's a contest to see what curmudgeon can claim the earliest date and wear it around as a badge of honor. I fly frequently, and most of the time I check a sidearm or two. My son and I went eclipse hunting this past week and flew on Southwest. No drama, just the signature card taped on the outside of the metal security box that is cabled to the frame of the suitcase. DIA has a special separate screening station, which is good, so you don't have to worry about getting paged later for key access.
