Cues on airplanes!!!

[SplicedPoints]

Just saw this on the news:

Passengers also will be allowed to bring onboard as part of their carry-on luggage novelty-sized baseball bats less than 24 inches long, toy plastic bats, billiard cues, ski poles, hockey sticks, lacrosse sticks and two golf clubs, the agency said. The policy goes into effect on April 25.

I totally see why you considered this information worth posting about (I agree - it is), however this is actually now the third thread on the subject. You might like to consider taking the discussion either to here: TSA to Allow Pool Cues as carry on

...or to here: The TSA is Planning to Relax Knife Prohibition on Planes

Not trying to wee on your cornflakes or anything though.

I'll believe it when I see it...first time I try this, I'm gonna have to have a backup/ability to transload it into my usual duffel when they tell me no. Something tells me that it's gonna be a while before the airlines, TSA and airport authority all get on the same sheet of music.........

My inner sceptic prompts me to think that West Point 1987 is not far wrong.

pool cues on planes

agree with West Point--How many cues? only allowing 2 Golf Clubs.--also airline personel are opposing it so may not become reality.
