GUEST,Mappa Mundi Security and guitars. (8) BS: Security and guitars. 19 Jan 05


Whilst queuing to check in for my flight to the US at Ringway, i was told that i would have to put my guitar in the hold of the plane;
When i asked the reason for this i was told "It has metal strings which could be use to strangle"!!! Honest, this is what i was told!
I questioned his logic(sic) but he insisted on having it his way.
You guessed it! The baggage handling chimps had - it looks like - thrown it from one end of the plane to the other, bent the lid and knackered my sound hole pickup.

On my return journeys i was allowed to take it onboard as hand luggage.

I'm gutted.
