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.

Similar to GrandMasterFlufflesAs a flutist, travelling can be rather annoying. Not because the instrument is outsize and expensive, but because, when sitting in its case in three different section, it can look rather dodgy in the xray.
"What's that in your case, maam?"
"A flute".
*opens case, obviously expecting to find bits of "flute" that screw together to make a gun, a la "Man with the Golden Gun"*
This happens A LOT. I work as a singer now, it's just easier.
