or when someone runs through airport security in seconds to catch a flight. In real life, security lines, tickets, and checkpoints would definitely slow that down

TBF, that trope was established back when you could get all the way to the gate before showing your ticket.

It might be funny to see it subverted by catching them at modern security, though

There’s an episode of 30 Rock where Tina Fey’s character has to decide between chasing a man about to get on a flight and leaving a dish of dipping sauce for her sandwich, or eating said sandwich.
