After I got to the gates associated with that checkpoint, I realized that my airline was not there and found out I had to go to another location and pass thru security again. I got rather anxious because I thought I would miss my flight, as I cannot run. When I walked as rapidly as I could to the correct checkpoint, I was breathing so heavily that one of the staff Flo approached me and helped me get into line bypassing the lanes that were set up. Although this line was shorter, I thought I had only twenty minutes before my gate would close and when I finally got on the other side of the screening machine, Work Location: TSA   Date: 11/18/21 Employee: Marco Maderazo Airport: Newark Liberty International Airport Experience: Passenger submitted a comment card that states: Marco M. and his Supervisor were not only kind, but thorough, respectfully, and overall so pleasant.

Work Location: Allied Security   Date: 8/4/21 Employee: Carla Hamilton Airport: JFK International Airport Experience: While leaving T8 I noticed a passenger struggling and in panic getting her baby carriage and luggage from her ride and onto the departure sidewalk. I helped her get the carriage on the sidewalk. She was still upset stating that she did not know the terminal, was concerned about the baby and suffered from a disability. I helped her into the terminal but was unfamiliar with the AA customer service detail. I saw Carla and introduced her to the passenger. She listened to the Concern and was quick to get a AA agent. She explained the situation and asked the agent to offer assistance. The agent handled the rest. Although it might not seem like a big thing, Carla’s action was just what the passenger needed. Unfamiliar with the terminal, concerned about her baby and struggling to push a carriage and luggage, Carla’s professional and friendly manner eased the passengers stress. She commented repeatedly on how grateful she was for everyone’s assistance. Work Location: ERMC
