    No chance. BAA makes a big chunk of its profits from the retailers who pay through the nose for a captive market (i.e. the departure area of a major airport). BAA (and the retailers) will be lobbying hard for the removal of these measures, and there may even be a small Party donation involved, and we'll be back to normal in a couple of weeks.

      No chance - quickest time I was out of a plane and on the beach was when I had stuffed all my clothes into my hand luggage.

      Now, I'll have to join the myriad of gurning travesties that seem to pack their entire houses, including the madatory suitcase full of Heinz Baked Beans just in case the local food is a little spicy (the dirty, dirty bastards), fighting to the death for luggage carousel space while avoiding the lawsuit as the feckless parents, who seem to think that a luggage carousel is a State provided playground for their kids, complain that little Jimmy is lying on the other side of the room with a dislocated jaw because I was lifting a heavy suitcase off the carousel and he happened to be sitting on it at the time.


      And breath.....

            I would suggest that all people boarding the plane should travel naked.

            Ah, that would never happen in puritain Britain!!!! damn!

                  Oh dear - I haven't thought about the mandatory full cavity inspection.

                    Only a matter of time before they start swallowing 1kg of semtex in condoms with a microtransmitter.

                    Expect not just handluggage, suitcases, keys etc to go through the x-ray scanner but us as well...

                      Shut up! I wouldn't mind boarding on a plane to Stockholm with 100 naked swedish nurses on a special conference day.

                      Now, I wouldn't board on a plane to San Francisco - that's for sure.
