I am so glad we are wining this war on terror, seriously all the more reason to drink on the plane.

Dont get me wrong... am glad that these people were stopped before perpetrating such a deed.

these restrictions are indeed making air travel a bit inconvenient with the safety of the people being top priority. i hope they get to devise a better way of hendling and implementing these additional security measures for everyone.
