Yeah, I'm a terrist if I bring my Right Guard on, but I'm clearly okay to purchase that $4.00 bottle of Dasani at Hudson News. Right.
This baggie BS has nothing to do with safety. It was a rouse, because just to say that you can't bring any liquids with you, yet you can buy that $4.00 bottle of Dasani would be a little obvious.
Also, this is just another thing that proves that money talk and BS walks.
I just stick everything in checked bags now, even pad the bag. My elite perk allows 70 pounds per bag. Not to mention, it's close to winter. Never know how much extra layers of winter clothing I might need for next week's two-day trip....to Miami. Hope you TSAers enjoy lifting my bags.
Back to the point.....I just avoid the hassle altogether and don't buy anything at the airport anymore. If more people thought this way, and
let the airport vendors and management know, i guarantee the liquid "danger" would vanish pretty quickly.
