Nude flight
After Nitroglycerin was found in luggage of some terrorists at a UK airport this month, the rules on carry-on luggage were tightened. For some time, even the duty-free liquor purchase was not allowed to be hand-carried on the planes. Due to no business, some of the duty-free stores were actually closed for a few days. Possibly after some heavy negotiations, we can now again bring the duty-free purchase to board a plane in Canada. Most other forms of liquid/ fluid are still forbidden.
Baby milk/formula/ food are still OK, but who knows if that may be changed sometime.
Who would have think of explosive in a liquid and edible form! Given enough time, mostly anything can be possible. What if one day, someone decided explosive can blend with fabric/ leather/ plastic and we should take the precautions of not letting it happen? We may then need to strip, shave clean, and get into a paper suit at the airport. If that’s not enough, I guess the authority may ban the wearing of any type of garment on the plane. Then maybe we can once and for all get naked and relax on the plane. That may make the long, boring flight more enjoyable than just some in-flight movies.
Now, imagine a 40-year-old air stewardess wearing a uniform smile and commandingly ordering you at the gate,"Take off your clothes." Sorry pal, we are not in 'unbearable lightness'.
