This is a thread for all questions relating to Sikhs traveling by air.

Q: What can I do to minimize airport security hassles? Don't these idiots know I'm not an Arab?
A: No, unfortunately they do not. There is little that can be done. Always be sure to arrive at the airport very early to assure you do not miss your flight. We advise wearing as much Western clothing as can be tolerated, slip-on shoes, and an easily-removed hair covering. Be polite and make no sudden movements as these semi-literate animals are often armed with tasers and are itching to use them at the slightest excuse.
