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.

flying...gahlast time I flew was in January 2004. I was going from my American snow-belt town to Florida.
Just before boarding the plane for the first leg of the trip down, an announcement was made for everyone on that flight to use the restrooms in the airport if they needed to, because the lavatory on the plane was not working due to freezing conditions.
This was alarming, not so much for the bathroom being unavailable, as for the wondering that if the plane's crapper was broken, what else might be?
Fortunately, the flight went ok and I never needed to relieve myself during the flight.
