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.

Istanbul Airporta couple of summers ago I was returning home from Turkey via Istanbul Airport, I got through the metal detector and was waiting for my hand luggage which they decided to look through, the guard was confused with the site of my Lynx deoderant can which has a funny nozzle, rather than asking me to spray it to check it's not an WMD he tried to work it out himself leading him to spray Lynx into his eyes! classic, he then found my camera and asked me to take a photo to again prove I'm not a terrorist so I've now got a lovely photo of a Turkish security bloke rubbing his eyes!
how he didn't get angry with all this I don't know!
size, I'm suprised he didn't check there!
