For what it is worth, yesterday I flew from Tel Aviv to Zurich to Washington-Dulles. Although we were alerted to the possibility of having to turn on electronic gadgets to get through security, this was not requested of us either at TLV or at ZRH -- although we were asked in Zurich what electronic devices we were transporting -- which for Ms. Seenitall and myself consisted of two smartphones, two iPads, one camera, one GPS and one razor (that we could think of). Does anyone have evidence that this power-on drill is actually happening?
