Hi
I just put my lap top inside my rucksack then when we went through security they just ask you to take it out to put on a tray to go through the xray then just put it back in the rucksack so it was no problem at either end :)

This one bag thing was enforced strictly at Gatwick in Feb also when Phil flew out - infact they wouldnt even let him take him newspaper in a W H Smith bag as well as a laptop case :confused:

A woman I saw at Heathrow two weeks ago got as far as the metal detectors with a rucksack and second bag. The security staff sent her back.

I have seen many people not allowed to carry on books etc because they already had another piece of hand luggage. If it can't fit in the one bag then it has to be left behind. Must have an Aladdin's cave of goodies back at the UK airports :frown:.

We were okay because there was 4 of us and therefore we could take on 4 pieces of hand luggage so put some of our things in the boys backpacks. I knew the kids were going to be useful sometime ;-)

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

you just buy a bag big enough for the laptop to fit in along with your other hand luggage.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

I thought they were allowing laptops through in addition to 1 piece of hand luggage these days. It's hard to keep up with the new rules from one week to the next :confused:

At Heathrow last week I has my one carry on rucksack but, with a little time to kill before I went through customs, I went into a shop and bought a plastic policeman's helmet which they put in a plastic bag . . . . . you can guess the rest.

Is anyone good with nero. I notice theres a create image of cd option. What If I do this to all my disc and save it onto an external will this be ok do have in suitcase or if I have it in laptop bag as my carry on.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

You have to hate it when those security guys dabble with your helmet.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

Just to add if I burnt an image of my video dvds and then when i get to canada burn it back onto a dvd will it not play on dvd players out there. Will save time looking for region free and all that business. Anyone tried doing that.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

Why don't you watch the movies now? Then you'll have the best scenes in your head safe from the customs people, and you won't have to bother transporting them.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

Yeah but What if I want to watch them in future? That whole point of people keeping dvds.

Re: CDs in suitcase
 

But you won't want to watch them once you've seen them as you'll already know how the stories end.

Get a region-free dvd player. Or convert your dvd player to region-free. 5 minutes with google should clear this up for you.
