At the desk they called out my name and one other lady's name. We went to the desk and were directed to go to the Security table by the gateway entrance. They checked our carry on's and frisked us. The 2 security guard told us that they do random checks like this every flight and not to be alarmed. They told us we could not go back to our seats but wait at the gateway. When the 1st class call went out the Security folks told us to go ahead and board. We were the first to get on the plane. Since they had already search our carry on's we were not allowed to go back to waiting area they let us go straight to the plane as soon as other 1st class was called. This happen to my husband last June so I knew what to expect when I saw the 4 "SSSS" on my boarding pass.
