#1 I don't know about the rest of you but I would GLADLY submit to a body scan if it means I can get up and go to the bathroom if I need to.

Telling someone that they may not use the restroon for an HOUR prior to landing is just plain NUTS. What if you are delayed in those last few minutes and it turns into two hours? What if your pilots get in an heated discussion and don't realize where they are until you are half way to Albuquerque?

Walk me through the body scanner and allow me to pee if I need to, please. Only keep people in their seats if you are prepared to provide them with diapers before the flight.

#2 I was flying in and out of Reagan back in the day when they did this for that airport. It was a) not a lot of fun; and b) was ignored shortly after.
