So is air travel more of a pain in the arse than before 9/11? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karpaty Lviv Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I was in primary school. I don’t remember watching it in class but I remember being told about it by a neighbour when walking home. Went to my mates to see the aftermath. Obviously had no idea about the impact on society or whatever. I do remember watching the episode of “Airline” when they recorded the day of 9/11. People going fucking mental because multiple aircrafts have been hi jacked and the airlines having the audacity to ground all its aircraft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I was living in London at the time. I was 11 years old and had just started secondary school. I didn't hear anything about the attacks until my mum picked me up from school. The first thing she said when I got into the car was that two planes had been deliberately flown into the twin towers. I spent most of that night watching the news coverage. Even to an 11 year old child, it was clear that these awful attacks were going to change the world we live in for the foreseeable future, maybe even forever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought from previous posts that you were just starting Uni and assumed you were late teens. Then again I don’t pay much attention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It confused me at the time that the games on the actual day of 9/11 weren’t cancelled but those the following day were, but I assume perhaps the full scale of the atrocity hadn’t become apparent by 7:45pm on the Tuesday evening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, velo army said: I'd never been on a plane until 2000 and can't remember much about it, but air travel after 9/11 has been an absolute faff. Can anybody comment on how easy the whole process was prior to this? The big change in the UK/Europe came after the shoe bomber Richard Reid tried to blow up a plane with a liquid bomb in his shoes around 2006. Before that you could take a carry out of glass bottles in your hand luggage no questions asked.
