I know similar situations it happened to many people. Just trying to make clear that even the country were we did more IETF meetings (up to now), is not respectful with many people, so taking decisions about banning specific venues must be very carefully considered. As it has been said, there is not a perfect venue, and we will find always reason for banning EVERY possible venue.

Do we want to follow that path?

Saludos,
Jordi

Some years ago, traveling via Miami to Curacao for some LACNIC events, I was asked at the Miami immigration desk to go to a separate room for some special questioning. This happened to me in several consecutive trips to Curacao and BACK to my home, no sense at all. In all those situations, I was about to lose my next flight, specially one of the times, going back to home, which will had mean waiting for 24 hours. The immigration officers told me that I’m in a kind of third security check level (don’t recall exact wording).

By the way, my TSA lock has been destroyed also several times despite it is a TSA so they have the key to open it without the need to destroying it, no sense at all, and I never got paid for it, despite I claimed.
