What items are passengers not allowed to take on board airplanes in your country? What are the reasons for these rules?



HELPFUL TIP: Read travel information online or at the airport before you pass through security. This can save you time and embarrasment in case you have prohibited items in your luggage.



Security : Excuse me. Do you have any keys or money in your pockets?

Passenger : No. No. I think I've taken everything out.

Security : Okay. Go ahead and walk through the body scanner.

Passenger : Will I feel anything?

Security : No sir. Just walk through and keep your hands in the air.

Passenger : Okay, huh?

[ Security alarm goes off . . . ]

Security : We need to do some additional screening. Sorry, sir. Please come this way. [What? Did I . . . Did you find something?] Relax sir. Okay? I'm going to open your carry-on bag. As I'm going through it, please do not try to touch it. [Okay.] Let's see now. Hmmm. First of all, sir, you can't take any liquids like this bottled water past this point.

Passenger : Ah. Well, I really can't drink any other kind of water. Sierra Springs is the only bottled water I drink.

Security : Sorry sir. [Ah . . . ] And, sir. What's this? [What?] No, sir, you cannot bring a lighter on the plane.

Passenger : But I don't smoke. I mean . . . [You STILL can't bring it on the plane.] But I have it just in case of emergencies. You know, as an emergency fire starter in case the plane crashes into a dark forest.

Security : Sir. You'll have to leave that here. What's this?

Passenger : Well . . .Oh. That's my pocket knife.

Security : A pocket knife? It's almost a foot long!

Passenger : Well, it's a special knife given to me by my grandfather, but I only use it to peel apples and fruit. You know . . . . Things like that.

Security : Sir. I'm sorry, but you can't take that on the plane. In fact, do you have any other prohibited items in your bag? [ Well, I don't . . .] I mean, didn't you read the sign back there explaining all of the items that were not allowed on board?

Passenger : Well, I started to read it, and I then got a little distracted.

Security : A little? Sir. How many times have you flown on an airplane?

Passenger : Uh, it has been a while. I think the last time I traveled by plane was about, uh, 1960 . . .

Security : Sir. Why don't you come with me? [WHAT?] I think my supervisor would like to ask you a few questions.

Passenger : Oh, no!
