Transit 'Security' ''Enhancement''!!!???
Just returned from Canada and the scheduled flight to LGW had a scheduled stop in Glasgow to disembark a few pax before continuing to LGW.
All the 'Transit' pax were required to disembark and endure a full security check: belts off, shoes off etc etc before being invited to reboard. The flight crew were not obliged to follow suit. We had to take all our belongings however any fluids in excess of 100ml were to be left on board as we would not be allowed to reboard with them.
Just another 'security' measure to piss off pax which seems wholly unnecessary, ill thought out and inconsistent in its application.
Any security bod out there wish to explain?
