Off site parking is cheaper and less hassle.

I think it's generally the people parking Valet that are blowing up airports.
This news story seems to pop up every 6 months or so.
My wife and I give my brother in law $20 to take us both ways. I say that's a steal and we'll do it every time we fly as long as he'll keep driving us for that. If I do have to park at DIA, I always park offsite at one of the lots on Tower rd.

Whats next?
TSA inspections at your home?
Wow... that would be a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. If it happened to me, which I never use valet (can't trust them after watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off), I would be pushing a lawsuit against the TSA (which is a government entity) for ordering a third party (acting as an agent of the government in that capacity) to illegally search my vehicle. Then again, I'm not surprised by this happening at Rochester... NY citizens have been getting trained for years to tolerant of violations of their rights.

Rochester? Try DIA Ronin.
What happens if the valet tells the TSA to stuff it? TSA doesn't employ the valet.
Maybe the next is that you'll need to install TSA locks on all cars that are parked at the airport or trainstation
Rochester? Try DIA Ronin.
DIA has valet parking? Man, I feel like I'm crazy spending already when my job lets me park in the big boy garage instead of the surface lots.

Yep, the valet is as you arrive on the arrivals pick up level and bear left (on East side at least).
Do what I do, drive a lifted Cherokee with Sawzall fenders in, and tip 50 cents.
Rochester? Try DIA Ronin.
Uh, the video the OP posted took place in Rochester.

And the valets in DIA are doing searches too. It was on the news recently.
if TSA is admitting this one, just imagine the stuff they aren't admitting!

"Doing searches" or "stealing my stuff out of the console?" With valet parking, it's hard to tell the difference.
"Doing searches" or "stealing my stuff out of the console?" With valet parking, it's hard to tell the difference.In Europe they have the Value Added Tax (VAT). Well here in the USA, not to be out done, we have the Value Minus Tax. You have something valuable, it gets taken.
