No you cannot board the flight with THAT

Reports are increasing in the last days where passengers had to give in to the demands of the boarding personal before they were allowed to board a flight. The first incident happened at Kelowna Airport in British Columbia, Canada. Marnina Norys, a Toronto resident, was asked to remove her necklace with a pendant of a miniature Colt 45 gun.

The pendant had no moving parts but she still had to race back to the check in to check in her carrying bag with the necklace because here luggage had long been gone. I like the question that one of the security guards was asking after the incident: “How do you know it wasn’t a real gun?” Classic, ain’t it ?

Now who would have thought that this incident could be topped so soon ? Brad Jayakody booked a flight with British Airways from Heathrow to Dusseldorf, Germany. He is wearing a showing Optimus Prime carrying a gun. Apparently passengers with shirts that depict guns cannot board flights anymore and he was asked to change his shirt to be able to board the flight. He was also reminded that he would be arrested if he would change the shirt again.

So what’s next. Asking someone with a gun tattoo to remove it before boarding the plane ?
