yeh i am also glad that crew are having to be extensively searched like the pax as well. makes sense in most cases. will have to remember not to take any perfume with me next time i fly then just in case! and i guess hand lotion is out of the question too.
i suppose at a push my bad could go into the hold as most of it is night stop stuff (just in case! lol) but i would obviously need my things to operate services etc.
do they know yet how long this is supposed to continue for? on my local news it said the hand luggage restrictiopns will definitely be in place for the next 2 to 3 days at my local airport. but my dad says he reckons this will be for the foreseeable future!
