After the security issues at airports, security at all airports in the UK has been raised. So when people check-in for their London flights they are asked a few simple security questions. After all security and peoples safety is very important.
The first question that the check-in staff ask you whether you packed your luggage yourself. This is to ascertain whether there could be anything put in the luggage without your knowledge.
Have your bags been left unsupervised at any time prior to your arrival at the airport. This could be a hotel room or a hotel reception whilst you are waiting to go to the airport. This is to make sure that your luggage could not have been tampered with and that there has not been anything put in your bags without your knowledge.
Even though there have been many well publicized security issues at airports throughout the world and in the UK people still think it is amusing to say 'there is a bomb in my bag'
There are arrests at airports throughout the UK each month because someone has said 'there is a bomb in my bag' The check-in staff have to take these comments seriously and contact the airport police.
It is now not unusual for people to receive jail sentence for doing this or at best community service and a large fine if you are lucky.
Once a bomb comment has been made aircraft and airports have to be evacuated which can cause a lot of disruption and make people miss connecting flights or suffer long delays.
Make sure you keep your luggage in a safe place so that nobody can put anything in it that there should not be in your case and hope that nobody makes a stupid comment and causes your flight to be delayed. - 16492
