Re: Breaking news- airport bomb and other stuff
Actually my son took his light sabre when we were flying from Stansted to Spain, the customs officer put a call out for a supervisor. It took over 5 mins for the both of them to finally decide it was harmless, unlike my 6 year old would have been if they had took it off him!!

Re: Breaking news- airport bomb and other stuff
His gingerness, who is the captain of the plane, had to hand over some tweezers, when he asked why, he said its because they might be used by you to take hold of the plane, he said i've got every intention of taking hold of the plane i'm the bloody captain!!!what am i going to do hold them to my own throat and demand i fly it to iraq??/
what about this one, another pilot was taking his son a light sabre home from the U.S.A, at the airport they seized it, saying it was a replica weapon. he argued that how can it be a replica weapon, light sabres don't exist, how on earth can you have a replica of something that doesn't exist?
they still took it off him!!

Re: Breaking news- airport bomb and other stuff
I flew back from Birmingham on Sunday night, late.. We weren't allowed near the terminal and were dropped off in the short term carpark. There were two planes going, one to Dubai which was a full plane as well as ours. Considering they had about 6 security xray areas they only used one and about 10 security guys there. You would have thought they would have spread out a bit and helped the Q. Would hate to think what it is like at 7am in the morning at the moment.

Re: Breaking news- airport bomb and other stuff
I would get them to get an red eye flight, might not be so bad than in the crowds in the morning.
