Lost bag yet again from the world,s favourite airline.

Not too arsed as the one that's gone walkies is the one with my tools and spares, my shorts and flip flops made it.

Day on the beach waiting for it to turn up tomorrow.
 

I'm ****ting myself about my bags/cases tomorrow. Got 3 to be checked in. About 20 coats/jackets in there and well worth a few grand. Of course, I'm insured, but many of them aren't available now.

*crosses fingers*

They'll turn up today as you had a connection lid so it might have been tight turn around, it's happened to me a few times.
 
Heathrow at 5 in the morning. Middle class businessmen sneer at Japanese tourists as everyone jostles for position at security. An overweight, sweating security guard takes an age to pat down everyone, regardless of whether they've set the x-ray off or not. A woman holds everyone up by asking the security guard what gate her flight leaves from. He actually stops to answer.

Is this lyrics off an Arctic Monkeys album or something you're actually posting?
 

The petty nature of some security agents.

I have a very thin passport/boarding card wallet that I sling over my neck as half the time I don't seem to have pockets to put them in and don't want to slow everything down by ferreting in my handluggage for the multiple times you need to show them. It is smaller than a thin paperback.

Yesterday, I had to put it in my luggage as there is "one item of hand luggage only".
 
On a Dan Air flight waiting to take off and there was a split in the paneling over my head and the condensation was dripping on my head , I said to the steward " have you an umbrella ? I am getting wet" I nearly got thrown off the plane, customer is king aye.
 

I hate the bone head security. I get pulled over without fail. here's the convo I had with 1 after a long day at work and legging it across the airport to make the check in desk before it shut...

"yes lad, I'll take me shoes off, sure go head frisk me, stick your hands in the top of me kecks to check I've not got explosives strapped to the top of me bills, no problem. I mean there's been loads of scouse suicide bombers flying to the Dam on a Friday night lid, so you can't be too careful"
 
Flew from Barcelona to Madrid once. Never again will I do that. Like someone said above, its like a free for all. People literally sprinting to get on the plane. We're all getting there at the same time ffs
