1234-5678 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Tomorrow morning, me and my friend John are driving my friend Chief to the airport. My question is, do we just have to let him off by himself, or can we go in and wait with him, perhaps at an airport bar or something? I haven't flown in a few years, and I have heard different opinions are to what is allowed these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you should be able to stay w/ him until he passes through the metal detectors, as someone else noted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2005 In most airports the bars or any place like that is after the metal detectors. Depends on the airport. The Ottawa airport has most of the restaurants and such before you go through security. Funny thing -- you will not find metal knives in any airport bar or restaurant behind security. They do, however, see no problem with metal forks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted January 3, 2005 It depends on the airport but I think most airports have the bars on the other side of the metal detector. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although, I should mention my flight was extremely early, so the bar(s) may have been closed, or I was too tired to notice them. And, as other people have said, they'd be beyond the metal detectors.

Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2005 Most US airports I've been to (which would cover most of the ones on the east coast) have had the bars and restaurants beyond the metal detectors. I don't make it a point to look for airport bars, though, so it's entirely possible I might have overlooked some that aren't behind the security areas.

1234-5678 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2005 Well we really didn't get anywhere, we got to walk him in, then took the escalator upstairs with him, and I believe the metal detectors were right there. We didn't get to send him off with a drink or anything either, as we were all too hungover from last night's excursion. But on the plus side, 5 minutes after I left, he called to let me know he ran into, and shook hands with EDDIE GUERRERO!
