“Might putting on a few extra people at the checkpoints be more effective?”
I doubt it. From my experience at the Atlanta airport (along with some other airports), it makes no difference whether 5 people are staffing the checkpoints or 50, the wait will be lengthy either way.
Maybe if there’s a problem with an instrument at the gate, they can go to her for advice?
More checkpoints would be effective, but I don’t see how adding one or two more people at each checkpoint would be. This is a purposeful slowdown because TSA has had such bad reviews lately, letting contraband and weapons get through in security tests.
Her playing would actually make many people more tense.
Actually, it doesn’t. Every time I play, I get many travelers saying thank you and that they enjoy the live music.
