I...I doubt that duty free will be affected by this. I travelled from Dublin to New York yesterday morning and all the passengers on my flight had to check their duty free bags in at the boarding desk. It was all very impromptu and improvised (the announcement from Homeland Security just came through as we were boarding) but it worked out. And those people carrying other liquid items like makeup and shampoos were able to do the same, put them in a plastic bag and check them in; you got a tag with your name and number scribbled on it, and at JFK, the (surly, but who can blame them) airport staff handed the bags back. Once they make this system formal, it should work out fine. So duty free will stay, I'd imagine.hesitant hackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02210377364150123884noreply@blogger.com
