Senior Management was regularly stopped when she used to fly to Brussels.
Her hair dryer - a small one for traveling- apparently looked like a gun.

A smarter traveller, after the first incident of this kind, would avoid
further 'stops' by buying a travel hair-dryer that didn't look like a
gun, rather than keep suffering the inconvenience.


Only someone who is unfamiliar with traveling would trot out such nonsense.


Having you hand luggage checked isnt uncommon and takes a moment or two,
unless you are difficult. In the scheme of traveling by air, it hardly
registers on the inconvenience scale.
