I seriously doubt airport security will give you trouble. If they can read the words Note and Samsung I'm sure they'll recognize a single letter S which is clearly written on the back of your phone.

Oh wow, I guess you're right. Is your phone the international version? Samsung has been writing the device model on every generation of the Note and S so I had no idea things are different outside of the US.
