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.
Tell us your best airport stories.

Naughty Nightie NightmareMrs Dickus and myself were coming back from Jamaica recently and we were singled out for a luggage check by the bored looking security bloke who probably thought there was an above-average chance of me attempting to smuggle some wacky baccy.
Asked if I'd packed the suitcase myself, I answer yes and proceed to unlock two padlocks, fiddle with the wraparound zips and finally fling back the lid... to display a skimpy silk nightie that Mrs D had forgotten to put into her own case before we locked it.
It also turned out the luggage was overweight, so we bribed the check-in desk bloke to let it through without paying a surcharge - saved me £30!
