Kilts on airplanes

[Lee]

Just back from a trip to Vancouver Island - my first air travel while kilted. Survived security checks in Ottawa and Victoria airports.
I removed my kilt pin and stowed it in my checked baggage - was sure that it would be confiscated, otherwise.

The kilt hose garters seemed to intrigue staff at both airports. Go figure.

welcome back, glad it went well.

you may not realise the potential danger of flashes, the elastic can be used as a slingshot and therefor is regarded as a weapon of mass destruction, so the airport was justified in being cautious.

and yet...(seriously) I brought back two bottles of whisky. A glass bottle on a plane could do some serious damage in the wrong hands!!
