No, you don't but then that bites into the "35 minutes" from LA to SF. The reality is that these tubes will take 30 minutes minimum at each end to load, route, and unload. I expect that the time will be closer to 1.5 hours, plus the regular 1.5 hours getting though security, etc. You think that these are not going to require the same anal probing by the TSA? Fat chance!
