Did you ever notice the different security standards in various international airports ... The last time I was on a business travel I happened to witness this ... it happened to an old couple on their way to the US, they were probably carrying some indian food stuff (pickles, powders... etc) to US and got into trouble at singapore and incheon .. Their cabin baggage passed through without any hurdles in the bangalore airport but it all started trouble during security check-in at singapore airport as they ban hand carrying any liquids, powders and food items and obviously the old couple were unware of this... After pleading the airport officials they succeded in getting some of their stuff and were allowed to carry them alongside .. To add to their frustration the story doesnt end there ... the remaining items which were allowed in singapore were dumped at Incheon ...
I agree that all these food items have to be carried along with the check-in luggage but how difficult is it to standardize the security check-ins at all the airports around the world.. ?
