## Resource

A couple breezed through Edinburgh Airport security with a Stanley knife in their carry-on—unflagged, unscanned, and completely overlooked. It wasn’t until their return flight from Cologne that German guards spotted it, leaving the pair stunned. The husband forgot it was tucked into his laptop bag for work on their sauna business, while the wife noted the scanner and body scan did nothing to catch it. With no sign of a security lapse during a quiet check-in, this raises serious concerns about airport safety protocols—even after a £24 million scanner upgrade.
