The point is to not know he's coming. Once he's here, it doesn't matter.

Him arriving by anything but Marine One would be a complete hassle for such busy air travel during the Olympics, though. EVERYTHING is grounded, and no flights are allowed to land, so they have to circle. I've been stuck on the ground at JFK *three* times for up to 45 minutes because of Bush / Obama coming in. Not only does he have to land, they have to wait for the plane to come to a stop in its parking space, and for him to get in his car. How annoying!
