The jars of honey were on top, in a sideways position, the underpaid security personnel at the airport were about to have a shift change.... Assuming our flight system is like a machine is a fools bet, at best. Napolitano says Canada lets Terrorists in easier than the US, even though every 9/11 hijacker flew into the US legally, with US paperwork. I have more problems as a WHITE Canadian re-entering the my homeland than I ever do the US. 3 gallons....um, I think that's a bit of a stretch. Pour 3-gallons into your kitchen sink. No overhead compartment could hold that much liquid, not now, or at any time in the past. 1/2 a gallon maybe. Marc, careful analysis of details does not account for reality.

If you've ever noticed, there is a lip on the front bottom which would hold liquid in. But just why would anyone not resolve the leaking honey issue & try to catch it all in their hands?

The flight attendant would have confiscated the honey and had the police waiting. In addition, all overhead compartments are designed to hold 3 gallons of liquid. They are sloped to the side of the plane and solid plastic as to not allow this sort of a problem. I like reading these stories but please do not make them up.

The three small jars of local jam that I was bringing home from Florida recently were confiscated from my carry-on luggage, ostensibly for security reasons. I just love the double standards....
