At least the topic of this threads is something I don't want to start when I get back from my little trip. A couple of hours ago I get sprung on me that I should book a flight to Atlanta early next week. Well I haven't travelled anywhere in years, not since I was a Kid and on a French Exchange. [Sidetrack: I never did like Camembert. The French family that housed me was pretty good with my estranged ways (being a Vegetarian) and I found that they packed sandwiches with Camembert in. I didn't have the heart to tell the mother of the family that her sandwich making was in vane, so I kept binning them. The number of sandwiches then just kept increasing with the lack of complaint.] None the less the point of this thread is a quick question to all of you what you perhaps think I should forget to pack? and of course what should be said to the wonderful Customs and Immigration staff at Atlanta Airport.
Don't take a suitcase that locks with other than a zipper. The fine ladies and gentlemen in security tend to snap locks they cannot figure out (even if the suitcase is unlocked) and then tape the suitcases close.
oh I almost forgot, don't take a bunny with you. I once took a bunny with me and put it accidentally in an x-ray machine, the woman who saw the bunny x-ray screamed in horror and puked and also than I realized that my bunny was inside the x-ray machine. ...the image looked all bloody vessels were showing and a skeleton as well...(I saw it with a corner of an eye)
Don't take any bottled drinks in your hand luggage, they'll get confiscated. Don't try to get through customs with a severed head in a box, even if there's a pretty bow and ribbon on it.
Narrator: Was it ticking? Airport Security Officer: Actually throwers don't worry about ticking 'cause modern bombs don't tick. Narrator: Sorry, throwers? Airport Security Officer: Baggage handlers. But, when a suitcase vibrates, then the throwers gotta call the police. Narrator: My suitcase was vibrating? Airport Security Officer: Nine times out of ten it's an electric razor, but every once in a while... [whispering] Airport Security Officer: it's a dildo. Of course it's company policy never to, imply ownership in the event of a dildo... always use the indefinite article a dildo, never your dildo. Narrator: I don't own...
Liquids. No liquids in your carry-on. Wear shoes that don't require tying and are easy to take on and off. No metal belt buckles. Make sure there aren't any explosives residues on your stuff. Uh. Laptops cause hold ups, since they have to examine them.
Do Americans have to give their fingerprints on internal flights? Just pack your stuff and don't leave it lying around anywhere strange, like the airport mosque. Remember to put liquid type stuff, like shower gel, in a plastic bag inside your toiletry bag. Not for any security reason, but it's never fun when your toiletry bag is full of suds and your toothbrush tastes like shower gel.
Don't be a white, conservatively dressed, grandmother. You're sure to get strip searched. To get past, you have to wear full Moslem dress, and look like you'd make a huff and sue the airlines if they look at you crooked.
