I was in the security lane at the Las Vegas airport, and to my utter surprise I did not have to take my shoes off or take the laptop out or remove my belt. What!? When did the rules change (as a matter of fact I had not flown for some 6 months)? So curious…
This seems to be a record in procrastination as I have been meaning to write the post for some time (more than a year to be exact). So I was in Geneva and our flight to London was at 7:30 AM. I didn’t want to pay one extra day in the hotel only to sleep…
