I flew from JFK last night 23/11/08 on the 8.55pm to LHR DL0001 and my bag was opened, the lock kept and a gold chain (fortunately the distinctive pendant had been removed and left), DKNY ladies watch (less one link which was taken out I assume to fit the member of staff) and new bottle of Prada perfume taken from a sealed gift set. Can you please explain HOW? and WHO HAD ACCESS TO A TSA KEY AT THAT TIME? and WHAT ACTION YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE TO PROTECT YOUR CUSTOMERS DURING THIS TIME OF HEIGHTENED SECURITY?
A formal complaint is being sent which will be copied to NYPD as I'm totally and utterly disgusted.
Hi, I'm going to celebrate my wedding in Puerto Rico. I have a set of two silverplated champagne flutes that I want to bring for the toast. My mother is worried that they will be taken away by airport security, although I don't know why. They are just champagne glasses, but they are made of metal. Could this be a problem? Thanks anyone who can help.
I will be dropping off my boyfriend and his friend at the airport and was wondering if i would be able to stay with them until they get on the flight? or will i not be allowed to go through security without a boarding pass?
You can try to ask the airline for a gate pass from the airline, but usually this is given to a person sending a minor on a flight by themselves. Otherwise you will need to say your good-bye at the outside of the TSA Checkpoint.

I will be traveling from JFK NY to Italy on Oct. 24th and would like to bring my snake with me. It is non venomous, does not have teeth and is only 30" long. It requires heat and must be transported in a battery operated case. My first question: Is it legal to transport animals overseas? Second question: If so, what are the proper procedures?
From what I've heard, you would have needed to have the animal neutralized or whatever 6 months in advance if you're going to another country, but then again I've only heard that from the US to the UK so I wouldn't know.
As far as I know you are only allowed to take a cat or a small dog on board. They should not exceed some certain weight. and there are restrictions on certain breed. Since you are carrying a snake I believe they might not accept it on board. You also needed to get some certain papers for your animal. You should have checked with the American Embassy in Italy. Have a safe trip
I have a question. I want to go to the airport with a superman costume (suit) to collect my girlfriend from there. It should be a suprise (we come from germany and she doesen't know, that I will fly too ... but I am earlier there than her).
Here in Germany they think, that there are many security advices so I wanted to ask, if it is allowed to come into the airport as superman.
(by the Way: is New York safty enougth that someone can go with the suit through the city without trouble???)
Please contact me ... (here on the board)
greetings Supie
You should be able to take more baby formula through, it is one of the exceptions to the rule. Just to be sure, I would take some powdered formula because you can always buy water inside security.
