The last 2 times I flew out of Ohare and once at MCO I went through the pre-clear line. It was nice. Didn't have to take shoes off and didn't need to dump out all my electronics. Flip side out of Midway I swear I have a target on my back, my suitcases need to be inspected and are checked for traces of drugs. Go figure, maybe they don't like polka dots.
The TSA lines now are just as backed up for the prescreened. There were always back-ups from time to time and my DS and I missed a flight once because of it and we were there very early, the lines just failed to move, makes you wonder sometimes what is happening behind the scenes .
Miss a flight and then you get to find another plus pay a rebooking fee. It is annoying.
