I think this is making a bit much out of a relatively small issue. I don't begrudge the president his security measures at all. You think it is an inconvienence to Lebenon, OH? You should see what Air Force One does to the air traffic control system. When AF 1 moving on the field, everything else stops. It does not matter what your schedule was, you wait. Furthermore, the exact arrival and departure times are classified, so the airlines have absolutely no way to plan around it. Not only are all departures stopped, but all arrivals as well. All of the roads, from perimenter to interstate, are shut down during these times, too.
Is it frustrating, time-consuming, and expensive? Yes. But it is a relatively cheap investment compared to the cost of a presidential asassination.
