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.

Landing at JerseyWe had booked nice week long break in Jersey (the Channel Islands one)
The flight was normal, the landing at St Helier airport was very close to crashing.
In all my years of air travel I've never had such a bad landing. We hit the tarmac with such force it caused most of the O2 masks to drop from above and a couple of overhead compartments to open.
I was sitting with a good view of the cabin crew, they looked terrified.
I (and I'm sure everyone else) had a slight whiplash Injury, apart from that great holiday.
