DAY 5: HNL-PHX??
I had the same problem as you with liquids at LCY. I had about 4 amenity bags that I'd collected up along the way. Security at DUB and LCY were being very strict (more so at LCY). After explaining to them that BA lost my luggage and that I only had hand luggage, they reluctantly let me through.
Thanks for posting such a detailed report NorthernBA, as always it's interesting to see how others got on with the HNL run! Oh, and congratulations on attaining GOLD status!
