Liquid Carry-On Restriction

[Spinn555]

Just seeing what everyone's theories are on this:

Does everyone think this liquid restriciton is a "forever" rule, or will it be modified, and less restrictive in the future?

If so, how long?

It will be rescinded on April 1, 2007.

Bet on it.

OK. Say you take an empty thermos or clear empty beverage container though security. Once in the concourse you pick up a beverage and pour it into your container. Then it winds up in your carryon bag and you board the aircraft. I know daytrippers that usually carry beverages in their carry-ons in this fashion, but what is the difference. Maybe they will be stopped at the gate, but maybe not. Or hey, a FA could give me some water on the A/C then I could put it in my little container and I now have water on me for each flight I connect too. Here, don't bring the beverage on the A/C we will bring it for you...

If scissors are now allowed on, then i'm sure liquids will be allowed on as well.

TSA is conducting random screenings at gates looking for exactly this. Uniformed crewmembers are exempt.

Why April 1??? What is significant about that day?

:beer: Hopefully never, we had full loads this weekend , turns were down to 20 min. overhead space for crews was aplenty. Its was so easy to board 137 when all they bring on is themselves.

More overhead space is great for the big @$$ bag that I have. Gotta love it

Yup...and my bag had toothpaste, deodorant, after shave lotion, a bottle of Imodium ( for those special mornings), shampoo, conditioner....and my bag fit in the overhead with full airplanes.

Over at "my house" most of our Customers can clean up at home in the AM, hop on a plane, get to that ever important business meeting in HOU or ELP....be back home in time for dinner....

....keeping them happy....still profitable....likin' it....
