All the more worrying given that the point of departure was from where we may consider a "safe" European airport.
Many years ago, an ex partner working in CDG (as was I ) described to me the celebrations taking place on the apron by "certain" baggage handlers whilst 9/11 was in progress, and how (in that era ) catering trucks just breezed through security checkpoint onto the apron/aircraft. . . . wonder how much has changed in any of the above respects.
