"The ban has meant millions of bottles of duty free alcohol, toiletries and perfume bottles have been confiscated amid confusion among passengers about what they are allowed to carry on board."
errr I don't think so. You can't get to the Duty Free until you've passed through all the security checks.
Used to happen in Heathrow T1 .. there was a security check between dutyfree and the aircraft where they'd take your bottles away...many got upset because they'd had their toothpaste confiscated by security, finally got the the pax waiting ared, bought somethng and then got it taken away...guess it was a good money maker for BAA....ah I think I understand the real reason now
