What the regurgitated report from LA (on the other side of the country) failed to note is that the airport will monitor security lines and give priority to ticketed passengers if necessary. Meaning in theory this will not impact security time for passengers.

I do agree though that airport shop prices and the ridiculous fees (trying to recoup for funding multiple millions in development for USAir which eventually left KPIT) are the factors killing the airport revenue.
