You are allowed to have knives and guns in your checked baggage. You can access your checked baggage in the customs hall. You are unlikely to have a gun in your checked baggage when while traveling internationally, but you can have a large knife, sword, crowbar, etc. If you are not re-screened, you can carry any of that onto the plane. Is it really that hard to understand?
The bolding is mine. Thanks for your explanation. Bolded, because I wouldn't even think about options like that, There just is not a mean, let alone violent thought in my repertoire. And it still is hard for me to understand, but of course you are right.
It doesn't matter how old you are or where you are going. Do you think you should be exempted from security procedures because of your age or where you 'just' want to go?
I know that this is not an option but for argument's sake and in an ideal world :YES. Here is why, I am a peaceful great-grandfather, whose only wish is to live a very long life alongside Mrs. EX. It's funny but it's the truth, instead of smashing flies, we try catching them and release them out the door alive ( so maybe we are a little nutty ), I am polite, I am friendly, I am retired and therefor don't wear business attire. Why do Mrs. EX and I continuously attract the extra attention at U.S. security, why so many other seniors? This begs for common sense!
