Laptops at airports

[speedbirdone]

Sorry I didn't make myself clear. If they dont see that it is a laptop, ie outside the case, they will often ask to get it out the case, poke about turn it on. If it's on top of the case and visibile they won't ask - I think I was asked once, and that was by someone training someone else (I got to know a lot of the people by name quite well that year!). That was essentially what they told me to do to make it as quick and fast as possible.

 

No worries. As im a frequent traveller through Heathrow T5, am already stood there with my laptop out, belt off, shoes off, liquids out ect ect before i reach the x-ray scanner.
