Free Juice

Just_Juice.jpgApart from the obvious safety benefits, there are some real advantages with the new international travel regulations regarding taking liquids onto a flight.

We were sitting in the coffee shop at the International Airport in the early hours of this morning waiting for boarding time for the flight our son James was taking.

A lady we’d never seen before came racing over to us. I wondered why she was heading our way and then she produced four of those juice boxes that the kids love so much. She was taking them onto the flight for her young daughter and didn’t realize that they wouldn’t be allowed. Instead of dumping the unopened juices in the bin, as others were doing with their drinks, she asked us if we wanted them. I guess she couldn’t stand the thought of wasting them. “Sure”, we said. Mmm – free juice.

So there you are. If you want to collect some free beverages, just hang around near the departure gate of the International Airport. Mind you – I think the price of parking may just offset the cost savings a little.
