Happy2cruise Posted January 6, 2017 #16 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Horrible event! It's so sad and scary as we have flown in and out of Ft. Lauderdale airport many times for cruises. God bless the victims and their families. Agree, prayers and thoughts to all. Sitting here watching the coverage and feeling so sad for the victims, their familes and every person at the airport. We got off the Caribbean Princess last Friday and were sitting at the airport last week at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JimmyVWine Posted January 6, 2017 #17 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Oh my... they just reported that he had the gun in his checked bag and had flown in from Canada...:eek: Perfectly legal. To the extent that anyone is bothered by the fact that TSA rules allow guns and ammunition in checked bags, contact your Representatives. But good luck with that.

Colo Cruiser Posted January 6, 2017 Author #18 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Oh my... they just reported that he had the gun in his checked bag and had flown in from Canada...:eek: Not saying its right but........ Checked weapons in checked baggage has been allowed by airlines for many many years. The baggage claim area is open to the public and unsecured. Anyone could walk into this area from outside and do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOcruiserman Posted January 6, 2017 #24 Share Posted January 6, 2017 So what would you do about that? What's your solution? Leave things the way they are? As a cruiser, I'm not happy with the idea that I could be killed at the airport headed for my vacation. Surely there's got to be a better way.
