I just got back from a week away in Iceland and my experience with the Airport Security checks got me thinking.
Do any cubers who travel a lot to competitions have trouble when taking cubes in their Hand Luggage through the scanner? I got stopped both on my outgoing flight and my return flight.
To say the box full of cubes in my bag kicked up a fuss is a bit of an understatement. My bag went through the scanner several times and 3 staff crowded round the screen to see what it was all about The lady then searched my back with rubber gloves.
The whole situation was quite funny to see how much fuss was caused by a few puzzles, but I guess they must look a bit odd through the scanner
So anybody else have problems? I imagine it must be quite annoying to have a bag searched on every single flight when travelling to a competition?
