Further to the other similiarly titled thread....
Tonight I was travelling as a pax through LHR to DUB. As I got to the end of the travellator tube just at gate N80 I saw a scruffy looking passenger approach the security woman seated at the door and I heard him ask her if it was OK to go back up the passage (the wrong way) to duty free to 'get something he forgot'. The security woman says - 'sure, no problem'.
Now, I have tried on two occassions...in full uniform...as operating crew...to do the same thing when I wanted to visit the magazine stall in the same area, and guess what?
Yes...I was refused entry.
Perhaps some security person out there can explain this to me, because I'm beginning to feel like someones taking the **** out of aircrew in LHR.
