  • thechr0nic, on 05/26/2008, -0/+6Thats about the best airline perk I have heard about so far.
    Forget frequent flier miles, I want cannabis!
  • Owwmykneecap, on 05/26/2008, -0/+1If i was the security chief no one would ever have found out about that.
  • isaactwito, on 05/26/2008, -0/+3I hope they marked the package as a training aid, otherwise someone's life could be seriously screwed up by this. They could be charged with trafficking marijuana, and 142 grams is quite a bit, especially with the strictness of Japanese marijuana policy. Not saying that wouldn't be the best surprise in the world.
    • PrintScrn12, on 05/27/2008, -0/+1They should definitely get rid of the marijuana in way that no one can find it.
  • lattethunder, on 05/26/2008, -0/+1This just makes me resent the Shoe Bomber even more ... Dude ***** up my vacation steez. At any rate, looks like a new Mile High Club is taking shape.
  • graemee, on 05/26/2008, -0/+1I've had my car used as a testing tool, by the U.S. Customs service. They had a bunch of new trainees and they used my car to learn on. It was a minor delay and the old guy thanked me. I'm just glad they didn't need to train on body cavity searches.
