> You know there was a man who was sitting on a plane and the man next to him asked him to look after a parcel he was holding as he needed to go to the toilet, and the first man said 'I hope it's not a bomb', and he was arrested for it?
That's unbelievable.
I know there are forbidden items on the plane because they took away my mini wine opener and liquid cosmetics.
But I didn't know that there are forbidden words, too! Who reported him anyway? Did some trigger happy
nearby passenger push a button?I'm flying in a few weeks, and not looking forward to all the paranoid scanning rituals... I wonder what would happen if I blurt out something like "Wow, these peanuts are da bomb!" I guess it would be funny til they try to arrest me. :)
The post 9/11 world is a strange and skewed place. It has changed the airports forever.
Flying is such a drag now.
