Riddle me this, Batman:
WhenCairo airport security discovered a man attempting to board a flight to Saudi Arabia carrying two duffel bags filled with live snakes (including at least one cobra), chameleons and baby crocodiles,did security personnel:
A. Confiscate the bags, arrest the snake smuggler and send the plane on to Saudi Arabia reptile-and-smuggler free.
or
B. Confiscate the bags, and send the man on his merry way with a warning about the potential dangers of carrying poisonous reptiles on international flights.
Yep. Option B.
The reptiles ended up at the Cairo zoo, and the snake-carrier boarded his flight after receiving a stern warning about the appropriate contents of carry-on luggage.
Maybe next time he’ll be smart enough to remember the cardinal rule of airline travel:lotions, shampoo and live cobrasbelong inchecked baggage, not carry-on.
