yeah the day I flew from NYC to London was the day the whole thing blew up so to speak.
when we were boarding we thought we'd get there early as it was looking a bit chaotic.
We were allowed to carry our wallets and and our tickets in a ziplock bag and that was it.
because i ddin't have a prescription for my asthma spray i had to ditch it.
then for seven hours we were stuck between security and the plane we weren't allowed into shops- no food vendors would sell us anything unless it was in glasses so thankfully I had beer but there was nowhere to get more cash out!
But then when it got time to get on the plane the regulations had obviously relaxed as there were people bringing books and sweaters and stuff in their bags.
fucking american airprort security assholes I spent the entire trip wheezing due to the aircon
without a book to read whilst tow rows back a guy is there reading his book.
Plus side of it you get on and off the plane in five minutes without carry on luggage!
