The trip to Israel (Tuesday, 7 June 2022)

I was arranging for the obligated COVID test for my flight to Israel.  There is a testing center at my terminal at the JFK airport. One last check on which test I needed revealed that Israel was lifting its testing requirement a few days before my flight.  Hallelujah! I did need to fill out a form and upload my vaccination card, but that was way less hassle. I printed out my green-lighted form, and just finished packing. I took a (relatively) early flight out of KCI. I needed a taxi to transfer between LaGuardia and JFK because there are no shared shuttles in NYC because of COVID (sad face). And even though I had my TSA number on my El Al ticket, the airport didn't have that lane open. So it was off with my shoes and out with the tablet.  Next problem.
