have to share the experience i had yesterday flying from Atlanta to NY JFK. Flew into Atlanta on Mon for business and packed very light all in drab. i know boring. Woke up Tues and decided to go to a local mall to buy a new wardrobe for my ride back. my first stop was Aldo and bought a very cute pair of wedges. then off to Victoria Secret to buy bras and panties. then to bebe. found a few cute dresses..tried them on and found 2 that i fell in love with. i immediately changed into my new dress and wedges along with earrings and a braclet with a new purse all purchased at bebe.the sales associate even disgarded my boring drab clothes and sneakers....now i had no choice but to fly pretty cause i had limited time left to make my flight. next went to MAC and had a makeover done. feeling very pretty walked back to my car in femme and off to the airport i went. first had to drop off rental car which was no problem, then catch monorail to terminal. a few stares but no one seemed to care. now my heart is racing. have to go thru TSA. after putting my purse and carry on thru xray walked into body scan with no metal on. low and behold im selected for body pat down and swab of my hands...slight delay....but they were proffesional.again a few stares but nothing to terrible. then catch monorail to gate.of course if you ever have been to Atlanta Hatsfield its a large airport. now to concourse and time just about for plane to depart and luck had it my gate was at the end of the terminal.by the time i got to the gate i missed my flight.now my feet were killing me from that marathon walk. the gate agent rebooked me on the next flight which of course is in another terminal and gate. make the treck back to the monorail and to the next terminal.now im early for the next flight. waiting at gate not even a glance. now board the plane flying first class was seated in row 2 where everyone had to walk by me.not a glance. flight attendant greeted me by ms and my last name and took my drink and food order. flight was uneventful. now we land back at JFK.Delta has 2 teminals.my car was parked at 1 where my original flight i missed arrived to and this one the other terminal. landed at jfk walked to the shuttle bus to the other gate walked thru both terminals a few stares but nothing. got to my car and drove home. it was a nerve racking but exciting experience and would do it again.take it from me if i can do it so can you
