What's the latest on these bags that you need for security. Are they supplied free or do you have to pay.
Anyone know if they can be bought in supermarkets etc cheaper (if u have to pay at airport that is)

Depends on the airport whether they're free or not.

Supermarket will be cheaper than the airports that charge.

I've never had a problem using a normal freezer bag. About 100 for a pound at the supermarket

Manchester Airport charge £1 for two little bags. Ridiculous.

If you got a free bag on the way out why would you need to pay for one on the way back? Just keep it.

Primark sell a strong resealable bag with 3x100ml bottles, a small funnel, and 2 small pots for £1.
and why do they have to be resealable?
and what's to stop a terrorist from having all the separate contents in 10 bottles and mixing them up when airside
and what's to stop him meeting up with his mates and all combining their quota to make up one big mother of a device.
A very poorly thought out knee jerk security measure, that I am quite surprised has not been taken away by now.
