Radio and Laptop on Quantas
Is using a simple AM/AFM radio and a laptop allowed on a UK to Australia
quantas flight ? Do they scan and or inspect itmes like these for security reasons ? It is ok to carry and use these ? If a laptop is ok is there any internet access available, if so how does this work ?

QANTAS!!!!!
NO 'U'!!!! No internet in the air either; but radios and laptops are fine after take-off, provided you use earphones with the radio - and understand you'll not stay in range of any one station for long!

So what about the security checks for laptops, removal of battery etc ? Depends on the level of security, but most places will at least make you open them up. Is'nt net access available / possible nowadays, thought it was ? Not on Qantas until 2006. Peter

Security is not airline specific. Each airport authority provides security
services - and they're stringent everywhere!!! "noone" wrote in message ... "A Mate" wrote in message u... QANTAS!!!!! NO 'U'!!!! Yes mistake there!
