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.

Mind the wine!While very small, I visited my Grandmother in Paris. I went on the 'plane as an "unaccompanied minor" which meant I got a very nice air hostess all to myself.
As we were waiting for my luggage to come out onto the conveyor belt thingy, my bag came crashing down really hard out of the doodah, and I cried "Oh no!"
air hostess asks if there was anything breakable in there, to which I reply "yeah - the bottle of wine for my Mum!".
The air hostess shushed me urgently and I then remembered being told not to mention it to anyone....
