Last year I flew to Alicante from Manchester, and one of my friends a police man, had a pen knife in his pocket
It was for his pipe but security didn't find it
I know WE should have known better but it highlights how lax the checks can be.
On the same flight (air 2000) two people boarded our flight to find their seats occupied, untill they discovered they where on the wrong aircraft
I have also just returned from Turkey the checks there are very stringent, but the man on the gate checked my passport against my boarding pass... But the boarding pass did NOT have my name on it, or any of my details so he was just going through the motions. As a lot of security people do
