TKC MUST SEE: KCI SUFFERS EPIC LINES & WAIT TIMES!!!

Remember . . .

When politicos and airline officials promised voters a new airport . . . TSA lines and social media trolling was a big part of their pitch.

And now . . .

LONG WAITS & EPIC LINES CONFRONT TRAVELERS AT NEW KCI!!!

NOTE: We blurred out the faces from that top photo but didn't alter any of the crowd deets. 

Again . . .

We strive for fairness and we'll stipulate that a record number of flyers are confronting airports across the nation. 

However . . .

A big part of the selling point of New KCI is that our airport would be so modern and AWESOME that we would avoid the misery of flying and long lines.

Instead . . .

New KCI has suffered sketchy parking, traffic jams and now . . . Long lines . . . Just like the old airport.

Here's the word . . .

"6:00 am this morning.  Line went all the way to the south wall.  15 minutes before you even entered the lane ropes.  One non-uniformed, non-badged employee directing traffic at lane ropes entrance."
