Airport StoriesBack when I was a moody teenager I took a cheap flight that involved changing planes and having to go through security again. My bags were pre-checked so, when I set off the metal detector, I honestly said to the security guy that I had no idea what had set it off.
Until, that is, he searched me and found the metal knife and fork stamped "KLM" I'd nicked off the previous flight.

Bloody customsI got strip searched after going through a metal detector when I was about 14 because, after passing through the gate about 5 times, removing belts, shoes, coins, watches at each turn, they couldn't find what was beeping.
All became clear when the pointed out the 14 inch scar on my left leg. I'd forgotten there was a metal plate in there, put in about 6 months previous.
The bastards also ripped open each individual teabag from a box of 80 Yorkshire Teabags.
