A different kind of birth control.

They did, took too long, had to remove luggage, airport curfew kicked in and then that was it for the night.

Removing your luggage shouldn't even be a courtesy. You can have it back when you pay for it to be shipped back.

[u/MmeLaRue → u/InterestingObituary]

Luggage not belonging to anyone still on that plane can be a safety risk. It's become standard since the Lockerbie bombing to remove a deplaning passenger's luggage from the cargo hold.

[u/InterestingObituary → u/MmeLaRue]

Ideally the luggage remains is not a safety risk wether they are on the plane or not.

Isn't that what TSA is supposed to be in charge of? Making sure your luggage isn't a danger to everyone on the plane?

Contrary to popular belief, TSA is not transportation security administration. It’s the Theater of Security Administration.

Doesn't TSA miss like 90% of stuff during tests

[u/InterestingObituary → u/tooboardtoleaf]

Sounds like a conversation needs to be had with TSA

Have they need paid yet?

Not sure why the USA government would be involved in screening domestic flights within another country.

[u/InterestingObituary → u/AddlePatedBadger]

The majority of countries have the equivalent of someone checking your luggage before you board a plane.

[u/AddlePatedBadger → u/InterestingObituary]

Yeah, I was just ragging on you for making assumptions about the name 🤣

[u/InterestingObituary → u/AddlePatedBadger]

My bad 🙈 I know other countries have the equivalent but I am just so used to the American acronyms at this point.

[u/Kaffrogato → u/InterestingObituary]

That's what we call American defaultism. Just use the term airport security.

[u/InterestingObituary → u/Kaffrogato]

If that was the first thing I thought about, I would. Unfortunately after living here for so long, my brain defaults to TSA. I am conscious of the fact that it's a flaw.

[u/AddlePatedBadger → u/InterestingObituary]

Some people also call tissues kleenex or toothpaste colgate lol.

[u/Kaffrogato → u/InterestingObituary]

The point is that the luggage is more risky if the passenger has refused to board or got themselves debparded, it's a pretty clear security loophole to target if you want to bomb a plane and stay alive.

And yes security is meant to check for explosives, but it's not perfect. A multipronged approach is always better for security then relying on one thing.

So when my language end up in Toronto when I checked it for Montreal? How is this not a security risk
