it’s been over a decade since 9/11 and the us government is still screaming about terror.

flying in oceania and europe is just a more pleasant and human experience. thank god for precheck

On the flip side, Europe does have more tedious liquid regulations (all small bottles fitting within a clear 1L bag with hat must be outside your luggage). Security lines at massive airports (CDG, LHR) are still pretty long and not that much different from non-precheck US security. At least if you’re connecting through many EU airports, you don’t have to go through security again! (Unlike you, LHR…) I’ve also only ever been swabbed at European airports.
