I’ve been forced to dispose of empty bottles at security because it said 500ml on the side.
Selective enforcement and shifting requirements is one of the major issues with airport security.
Some places force off belts and shoes, and force you to remove laptops and electronics from bags, some force them to be in your bag… it’s very annoying that it’s not consistent across airports. (in europe).
- ozzcer 2y agoI've been in Gatwick at times before when one queue has a hard arse taking off people's shoes and the next one along doesn't care if you take your liquids out your bag. Not sure why having a set of rules and sticking to them is so difficult.
- idlephysicist 2y agoThe woeful inconsistency between airport security checks within the same country and sometimes within the same airport, really lends itself to the theory that it’s all a farce. Travel time makes a big difference too, e.g. at peak times please keep your shoes on.
- eastbound 2y agoSo “shoe terrorists” will commit attacks at peak time? (I don’t even know how much botleg water a shoe contain to upset the border control so much).
