I will add, none of my lot have ever tried to “game” the system. They know the guidelines and just want an easy journey. Saying that, when you’re escorted by BA SS you could quite literally bring the kitchen sink onboard and still be asked if there were any other items needing stowage.

A while back I was checking in at TFW and next to me was Ed Sheehan also checking in with two others. I pointed this out to the check in agent she acknowledged that and carried on. When I was checked in she personally escorted me to the boarding pass check, it has not happen before or since. No I didn't ask for an autograph at security on in the lounge. I leave everyone I see alone.
