They taking phone chargers off you??

Seems reasonable. If you have a non working electrical device. . It's being taken off you.

 

Clearly had a huge tip off

Seems a joke to me. Not being able to turn on your phone doesn't mean you will blow a plane up. My devices regularly run out of battery when waiting round in airports for delayed planes.

They will introduce charging stations into airports that you will have to pay for.

 

YHIHF

hahaha, 350 blown to bits cos the gay welshie cant keep some charge on his phone

 

my understanding is that the battery gets removed from these devices to allow a bomb to be rigged

 

thats if the security types are telling us the truth, obvs

as a regular traveller I'm surprised you aren't understanding why they need to do this

if we can be outdone by them changing the battery to an explosive device then its a sorry state of affairs.

 

also kids liquids are back to one tiny clear bag....so don't be packing too much as they chuck the lot. 4 women in front of me suffered this fate.

I am on Ryanair on Friday, can I take my massive phone charger?

Why take the risk if they have reason to believe some cunt might bomb a plane?

 

Not the end of the world for normal passengers is it? It would be if the bomber got on though.

It's alright for most of you, try getting on a plane looking like a shoebomber!

That's numb even for you!

No but you can take a paperbag full of human excrement from me

 

Ryanair = CockGoblins of the highest order

So what if your phone runs out of battery FFS are folk that desperate they have to keep in contact with other folk eveywhere they go, WW, Twatter, FB etc, get a fuking life. The last thing i think about when i'm away is you miserable fuckers.

 

I've no sympathy with folk who get stuff taken off them at airports, they know the rules

profileing ITK FACT

Is it just US destin flights ??

I read that you have to prove that your device turns on as terrorists could pack the battery compartment with explosives. They are not stopping you taking a charger with you.

if we can be outdone by them changing the battery to an explosive device then its a sorry state of affairs.

 

not checking would be a sorry state of affairs

if technology is at a level companies like EADS have us believe then they should be able to detect this stuff.

surely there should be some kind of FBI profiing for the extra checks........

I flew Friday. Got all my liquids took out of my clear bag I brought them in, crammed into a tiny clear bag at security. Then got a bollocking for taking a curling wand and had my bag searched then another bollocking for texting on my phone whilst waiting in the queue. Oh then the cash machine swallowed my bank card once past security, was fun.

that's where I am. Also I was on a small plastic bag only for liquids on my last trip and I can't say it bothered me for the few hours I was without my vanity case.

Having said that, in Bali they didn't seem to give a shit which made me feel uncomfortable & seemed odd with their previous history with bombs.

The whole thing is a fucking joke.

 

Don't give a fuck anywhere else in the world.

 

Totally OTT.

 

Flying these days is totally unpleasurable especially if travelling with children.

make is as unpleasurable as they want for me

 

I couldn't give a fuck as long as it stops me going head first into the twin towers

Not as unpleasant as being blown up, I don’t get the problem I had to do the same thing 8 years ago when I worked offshore, everything had to be powered on before we could board the helicopter

When I used to commute to and from Munich, it was a piece of piss getting through Stansted with mobiles and laptops.....when coming back though, they always used to make us power up our laptops.....bearing in mind this was knocking on for 15 years ago as well, it would take an absolute age to get us through. So it's not a new thing, thankfully electrical devices tend to boot up in a matter of seconds now
