Do you have examples to the contrary that are closer the the experience in TLV than they are to the experience in say, CDG or LHR?
If I find the security experience at AMS to be unacceptably intrusive, I will not fly directly from AMS to the US in the future. So far, that has not been the case.
Yep on 5/5 for my return flight on CO 71. About all they didnt ask me was for my Shoe size!!! Im NOT kidding. This was all at the Gate area before going thru teh machines that are there.
I could understand the questions about where Ive been and where I stayed, but she started to ask things that had Nothing to do with the flight or my bags or my stay. She eventually didnt like my answers or attitude and took my Passport and BP over to her mgr. I guess when they went thru all the pages and saw all the stamps from where Ive been, they understood I wasnt a threat. BTW I did say to her without being asked anything "11" she asked me whats that I said "My shoe size its about the only thing you didnt ask me". She wasnt smiling but I was.
