Here's one for all the "good" Germans.
Passengers Can Expect Double Screening
By LESLIE MILLER, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - Beginning Friday, airline passengers will go through double screening to make sure they're not carrying liquids onto planes, the head of the airline industry's largest trade group said.

Any bets on how long this is going to continue go down hill?
Oh well, lots of drinks FOR SALE on the plane itself.
Don't forget to load up on your "duty free" alcohol, CIGARETTES & "non-toxic" perfumes either
Leanna Diaz, of Palm Desert, Calif., left, uses her lipstick one last time before throwing it out as liquid containers are collected from passengers' carry-on bags at the Portland International Jetport, Thursday, Aug. 10, 2006, in Portland, Maine.
Heightened security measures quickly produced long lines at airport checkpoints as the government banned passengers from carrying nearly all liquids and gels aboard flights after a major terror plot was foiled in London.
The ban extended to toothpaste, makeup and suntan lotion.

There not taking books dude, relax. My gf just flew home today to Canada and she took several books. People start exaggerating these stories, like, I heard you have to fly in your underwear:) |
