I know there’s a thread somewhere with a more general question about this, but here’s a one off that might help some folk. I just flew from the UK to Bulgaria and back over the last 2 days and took 3 togo’s with me. The trouble is that I don’t check-in luggage any more if I can help it…so everything goes in my little clear plastic bag through x-ray. On the way out - just toothpaste, Baldessarini cologne and 3 togo’s. The security woman looked over the bag really closely (and passed it - phew). Maybe I should record this as a hit 🙂 Anyway, I only realised later that carrying something called “Ammunition” through an airport was a pretty dumb thing to do!! That gave me a cold sweat . So, on the way back I added a couple of those mini shampoo bottles that every hotel has in the bathroom, thinking that lots of mini bottles would just mark me out as a cheapskate not a terrorist - and it seemed to do the trick. No problems at all. I’m not saying this is a definite fix but if you have to travel this way maybe give it a try…oh and Smartmones, can we have a new label “Am-discreet” for the travellers 😃 ---

I always transfer my mones to Sephora atomizers and have never had a problem with carry-on or checked bags. But, yeah, it would be kinda foolish to carry a bottle marked “Ammunition”! TSA workers ain’t very smart and some are lookin’ for a way to feel important and powerful. One of my GFs had problems at the Vegas airport a lipstick case sharped like a shotgun shell. At least I talked her into leaving her fake bullet belt at home… ---

You should be absolutely fine - we (pilots) are subject to more scrutiny than most, but to date nobody has ever caused any problems. If anything, they are curious… “What is A314 man - what does it do?” 🙂 ---

If anything, they are curious… “What is A314 man - what does it do?” 🙂 And that scrutiny is mostly BS to make TSA workers feel powerful and generate a false sense of public sercurity. So what if the pilot has a pocket knife, more than 3 oz of liquid or a book of matches. He has a friggen fire axe in the cockpit and can crash the plane if he wants too… ---

Hahaha…I can’t help but contrast this with something that happened to me about two years before 9/11. I was late getting out the door to get to the airport and grabbed a bag I normally take with me to go train and used it to stuff some clothes in. I had thought I had emptied it but forgot about the butterfly knife I had in one of the small front compartments. I tossed it on the x-ray machine conveyer and stepped through the metal detector. Security meets me on the other side, telling me their is a problem with my bag. They take the knife out, then whip out a ruler. “S’okay, it’s under 6 inches”…hand the knife back to me (not put it back in my bag), watch as I flip it a few times and tuck it in the back pocket of my jeans and then wave me through to my airplane. Not saying their security was lax, but there definitely was a different way of looking at things back then that we sort of took for granted. > [@Gegogi](#): > > And that scrutiny is mostly BS to make TSA workers feel powerful and generate a false sense of public sercurity.
