Security At CDG
Flew AF 026 yesterday CDG-IAD

Security very tight.No problem with my CPAP machine but got X-rayed twice and then hand searched.Seems they do not see those very often.

I did have a small bottle of nose spray and according to AF web i can carry essential medicine in liquid form to the USA if not more than 120ml.
Well it took security 10 minutes to decide that only form of liquid allowed is eye drop
Got the attention of the head hancho lady and showed her the approved list and very rudely got the following answer "This is AF and i do not work for AF"
The security guy was very nice and he fetched the spray from the container after the head hancho throw it there and allowed me to spray in my nose before he put it back in the container.
