A couple of weeks ago, a positioning crew member through T3 was made to remove all toiletries, for a 2 night stopover, from a transparent zip top bag into the postage stamp size bags that are now being sold. On protesting she was told it had to be a sealable bag (zip/seal??) and that all 'that stuff' wasn't needed!!! The bag in question has been through daily security in other airports before and since.
Talking to a more reasonable security guy I was told that the legal requirement is a transparent, re-sealable bag and nothing more. I sincerely hope someone challenges this latest travesty at MAN
