You've got a point, though. Maybe someone should suggest to them that
they need to start giving all passengers rectal exams before they board.

The TSA is already ****ing us... And you call it a "rectal exam"...
You're kinky, Emily...


it is good to be kinky :-()

AFAIK you are only reimbursed a certain amount of money per kilo of luggage
when lost.


In the US, it's a flat rate of $2800. That doesn't cover my laptop AND
clothes, etc. Internationally, it's per weight, which still doesn't
cover it.

Other point: there has to be the name on the prescription or on the meds -
matching your name on the ticket. Well, it is uncommon in central Europe
that you keep your prescription (it goes to the insurance for
reimbursment)


Here, too. The pharmacy keeps the prescription. I wonder if anyone
even thinks of this stuff.
