you may need to re-clear security in LGW if so any duty free bought at EDI needs to be in a checked bag.

Since the OP is not changing planes in the USA on his way to his final destination, then buying at duty free in EDI or LGW should be no problem. However, if he buys stuff elsewhere in Scotland, and brings it with him to the airport, it's going to need to be checked. |
LGW
LGW is my connection roundtrip.We have a 5 hour layover at LGW on the return flight,would that mean I would have to clear security again
I figured I would be putting any liquids in checked baggage considering all the BS with TSA Rules. |

You may have to collect your luggage in LGW and proceed through customs and then redeposit your luggage on a belt to be forwarded on to your connecting flight. Again, you'll be told exactly what to do. Just follow the crowd and ask someone official looking if you have any questions.

Uneventful
Well were back from Scotland and had a great time
The flight out Security at MCO - shoes off and on the Belt not in a bin, laptops out and in a bin.All TSA at MCO looked like they were going for the big catch. LGW- shoes stayed on,laptops out.Security people were so much more relaxed then the TSA at MCO. The flight back EDI-checked bags thru to MCO.Security was quick shoes on ,laptops in a bin.again relaxed security people LGW- Had to get rid of bottled water bought in EDI just to get into the terminal,shoes on laptops in a bin. Mrs. Nunya gets Gate Groped, the security doing that also got yelled at by a Supervisor for going thru Mrs.Nunyas bag while she was being patted down and not being able to see what the agent was doing.Other then that all security people were relaxed MCO-Immigration & Customs were a breeze.I could've brought a case of Whisky home with me and they wouldnt have known any better. Pretty much it seems the TSA is a bunch of uptight ninnys. |
