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.

Back in NovemberMe and my family went to America back in november, we were going to do the overnight check in with virgin at heathrow, but as we were waiting to check in this stunning blond in red uniform stops us and explains that the flight we are supposed to be on has been fully booked out and they offered us to take another flight, running a few hours later and a cash suppliment to take this flight, when we asked how much, she told us £400, £400!!! that was the cost of the tickets!! so thats what we did, we waited about 3 hours for the tickets to be sorted and all was great, we had to change at jfk and went through customs there which took us about 10 mins, then we were ushered into the domestic departure lounge,it was a hole, crap filled shit pit. the plane we got onto this time was shit, we were flown by song airways and it was practically falling apart! the only good thing about this flight was the music library, you could create a playlist and fall asleep to it.
first post for ages! Woo!
