Why aren't more people complaining about this? How many more years is this going to happen?

If I have no checked bags, why can't I stay on the air-side to get to my connecting flight after I pass immigration on the upper level - without going down to the carousel level - and hence keep my duty-free with me?

Have you had a recent experience where they didn't allow it?
