Well, I was expecting the worst, but I was pleasantly surprised by what an easy experience it was!…read moreHowever, a few caveats: Definitely make a reservation beforehand, because they ask you before you even enter the building if you have one. Also, arrive 30 minutes early- for 2 reasons: parking- while there are places around the building to park on the street, good luck finding a space. I ended up simply parking in the garage- which, by the way, costs $20 for 2 hours. Also, you can leave the garage through 2 doors, but those same doors are locked from the outside, so you have to walk all the way around when you leave to get to your car. Upon entering the building, you will be asked if you have a reservation, and you will have to show it to the security guard. Once in, be prepared for airport security- removing all metal, going through a metal detector, and being wanded. For me, anyway, after that, everything was a breeze. Upon entering the 3rd floor, I was again asked if I had a reservation and had to show it to the security guard, who in turn directed me to the kiosk where I signed in and was given a paper ticket. I was given a number that corresponded to a screen. I sat down in a very uncrowded room, and a few minutes later, my number came up; they also sent me a text. I had a very pleasant agent who helped me do a name change on my social security card, and I was done in less than 10 minutes! I headed back down and got in my car, paid for parking on the way out, and was on my way!

I think they were about 15, 20 minutes behind. Note, it's by appointment only, and they book several weeks out. (The Tampa office is months.) The office is located across from the food court on level 3, but don't be tempted to venture too far. There's no pager to buzz you when you're up. I hope you have the agent who processed our applications. He was so fun and had the coolest office full of sci-fi toys. We all left happy and felt it was worth the drive and wait.

After waiting in one line, the agent informed us that we were not in a Pre Check line and advised we got to the end of the other line. I questioned a man who seemed as if he was in charge and he was very curt explaining that they were no longer Pre Check lanes. Several passengers were quite frustrated and making comments. At this point, the manager, who would only give us his first name, Alex announced that he as allowing other passengers to go ahead of our line because we had been impatient. I would think a higher up manager might want to know how TSA is being represented.

When I approached she spoke as if her mouth was full making it impossible to hear much less understand. When I asked the difference in cost between overnight and priority she tossed an address sticker on the counter for me to fill out. I then repeated the question she turned her back to me saying nothing and pointed to the ceiling. Does everyone just look up at the ceiling for information? I then told her I'll take the overnight. She gave me an envelope and pointed to the area to fill out. What a rude obnoxious person the American tax payers are funding her life. I needed to walk away, so I did her the favor and tossed it back at her and I went to the lobby to fill out the envelope. Luckily when I came back I had a young man who was very nice, very helpful. However, she kept telling every customer who would listen how "some people" are disrespectful. Each customer until I walked out had to listen to her mouth. I walked out with a man and he said "She needs a lesson in humanity". I feel bad that anyone has to work with that thing but thanked the young man for his help. It is no wonder this location has a overall very low rating. Florida has a fire-at-will clause, DO IT.

If you do have a good or bad experience, you submit an online comment card, where they have a poster right at the people move stations that you scan a QR code. However, do you really think management would read your comments and respond. Maybe if you are really lucky. Before this becomes a political post, it's just best to bring your patience and try to keep a positive attitude. If you are nice to them, most of the time they are nice back. However, if you can't stand the inane policies and hit or miss service, it's then best to try another airport or country (like Mexico or Japan) that does it better.
