I have to say, TSA wasn't near the nightmare it usually is. They were close to lackadaisical. Didn't even make me open my carry-on, for one. When we came back through Charlotte Amalie, they asked me if I was over 75 and had any implants and when I confirmed that I was and I didn't, they didn't make me go through X-ray either. It was kind of weird, TBH. Also, I don't yet have my Real ID due to being unable to get all of my paperwork (some of which is from another country) and I thought that would be a hassle, but since I have and paid for my Confirm ID, that was a piece of cake too.
