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.

Hangovers around the world.My most painful hangover ever was at Doha airport in Qatar. It's apparently quite a serious offence to be publicly drunk there, so absolutely reeking of vodka and vomiting copiusly was quite scary. Not as scary as subsequently being strip searched by two moustachiod Qatar-ese ladies while two others with guns looked on. And they had very big fingers.
On the bright side, it sobered me up quite quickly.
