farci..

For this to be realistic would require a very complicated conspiracy involving two suspect passengers and the person who opened the wrong door, presumably other gate staff and/or their supervisors at STN and (just to be sure) others at LIS
That's true, but never understimate the ability of some in UK Transec to come up with the most wild theories and then put in place measures to counter the same....not saying that it's right or wrong but that's the reason crew leaving the UK seem to come in for special attention and subject to some bizarre rules at some airports, and also the reason 750XL said:

All pax have to be screened to DfT standards, which from experience is a lot stricter than other places worldwide.

But yes, I'd agree the STN incident sounds like a "foul up"
