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.

International TerrorismMy ex's best friend was visiting his fiancee who lives in America. Said friend is very tall and was wearing long black leather trenchcoat, so of course is very...erm...recognisable. Suddenly he found himself surrounded by airport security, with guns, demanding to see his passport. Cue underwear = brown! Having slowly withdrawn said passport from pocket whilst keeping hands visible at all times wishing to avoid instant death, security guards took one look at the passport said "Sorry sir, wrong guy" and left the scene leaving friend in state of "Oh my God, what was that about???" and general shock.
It's lovely to see that they encourage the terrorising of visitors to their country!
