The TSA will start allowing passengers to carry small pocket knives and other common sporting goods on planes beginning April 25th...
Knives under 6cm or 2.36 inches, with non-locking blades, will be allowed to be carried aboard flights.

Golf clubs and hockey sticks can be carried on?

If I see this guy, I am getting off the plane.

Sub-Zero is now just "Plain Zero".

So now maybe they won't be confiscating cigar cutters?
[Reply]

They were not supposed to be anyway. Cigar cutters were allowed already.

It'd just be easier if they left it as is. Now it'll just be a big line of knuckleheads holding up the line with their centimeter too long knives, and there's no reason in the world they can't go in checked luggage.
Same goes with cigar cutters. We can go without till we get to our bags. That's why God gave us teeth.
Granted, I'm not sure what sort of psychological terrorist advantage one will gain with a cigar cutter, but it's not a bad thing that planes are scrubbed sanitary of anything that might create a problem at 40,000 feet.

+1 :-)

I concur Scott. I only see this making more problems.

Tom.... You can only bring two golf clubs aboard in the carry-on luggage. You will have to decide which two! Who carries on golf-clubs anyway????? I haven't seen an overhead bin wide enough to place most clubs in without folding the clubs in half, which I assume would greatly limit their usefulness!!!

Scott.... I agree 100%. This will just make more problems. Especially since there is already NO consistency between TSA agents from one airport to another. This will only make it worse.

Call me when my Constitutional rights are no longer null and void on a plane. :-)

Oh and the handle cannot be"molded". So basically a small Swiss Army knife only

Cliff, I am more concerned with bringing 2 hockey sticks on, and having an "aisle hockey" tournament at 30,000 feet. :-)
[Reply]

Tom...it'd probably be more exciting than some of the movies the airlines show. :-)
[Reply]

Finally, some common sense. The TSA needs to start profiling and forget the politeness. Time to call a spade a spade. Even better, they should let the airlines do their own security. TSA does not inspect passengers on buses or taxis...

I will knock someone's teeth out for an extra snack pack..... :-)

Straight to the penalty box for you!!!
[Reply]

Do they have peanuts there? :-)
[Reply]

No peanuts and you have to sit there with two annoying f'wads in green body suits acting like a$$holes.

Love those guys.....NOT.
