"TSA says this is an optional program for travelers on domestic flights, while some foreign nationals may have to participate to be allowed on international flights."

I always walk briefly into the Albert Heijn grocery store at Amsterdam #Schiphol #airport just to see new products when I arrive from oversees. It is bigger than a ‘grab and go’ and offers a lot of variety. As a #transit hub where #train, #bus and #plane meet, it is a great location for an extended convenience store. There was a line up for self service coffee too. The #Dutch #stroopwafels are always a popular item. Downside, it is all prepacked.
