Not good.......

I dunno what your complaining about, I love it, works quiet as fuck today , mind you, was a bit pissed they didn't let me take my food in with me (leatherman & mobile phone fine, food...no )

Seriously though, follow the guidelines from the DfT and you'll be fine, (ie, no hand luggage, clear plastic bag with essentials), by Monday everyone should be used to the new restrictions and things be a lot easier

Bad news mate.

The customs people in the US are absolute cunts to start with in my experience, they'll be even more power mad and obnoxious now. Wankers.

And I am flying to Moscow on monday afternoon

Problem is, I don't mind the new security measures, however, I do have to travel with a laptop and don't fancy leaving that in hold luggage.
Same goes for digital cameras, etc... when going on hols.

Unless airlines provide some kind of guarantee, I can see many people only flying when absolutely necessary...
