Not for anything, but has there been an incident since 9/11? I know there was the shoe bomber where the passangers saved the day, but they have adapted and everyone has to take off their shoes now. Not counting the cargo plane issue (which really falls into another category), I think there has been one other incident since 9/11. Whether you like it or not, it does seem like the security at the airports is getting the job done. Also in general people are more aware what's going on and won't sit if it looks like something is going down.
