Hello all. Well we have had a wonderful holiday here in Vienna and Prague and certainly did our share to stimulate the local economies. this includes two full carry on suitcases of crystal.

we have been told it is going to set off every security scanner in the airport (flying out of Vienna). Any advice on how to handle it at the scanners/xray?

Should we advise the security there that it is full of crystal so they don't panic when they see all black shapes heading through the xray? I realize they will have to unpack alot of it and we are packing it in a way to make this easier on everyone so it's easy to access and repack.

thoughts? We fly out tomorrow. On the same note. We are flying business/first on Austrian Air to Canada. Is there a "fast" security line for first class like other airports?
