Yes I was pissed when they confiscated a small snowglobe I'd bought for my daughter. But, dude...that means they really are checking the x-ray'd bags!
When I was pulled to the side, my husband ended up forgetting my camera. We noticed it was missing Saturday, I filed a claim that day. Sunday I got an email saying it was found and to call to verify. Monday they shipped it out FedEx! That redeemed them for the snowglobe confiscation. :-)
4 stars for safety!
