    I left an NAIA and was allowed to bring very, tiny hand sanitizer to a province up north, well the terminal fee was 200 pesos, 4-5USD, when i was to return to manila, the provincial airport didnt allowed me to bring the very-tiny hand sanitizer back on my hand carry. and the funny bit was the terminal fee was only 20 pesos, 20cents american.

    manila airport is lax in security while provincial airports are tight. funny.

    I have never had anything confiscated from me while going through security. I always go prepared.

    One of my coworkers forgot he had his cellphone in his pocket, and passed through the metal detector three times (failing all three times) and they took him to the side and did a full search. It was funny. Even though they found the cell phone right away, since he had failed the metal detector so many times they searched his stuff and asked him a bunch of questions.

    And while I have never had anything confiscated, I actually brought some of my work tools onboard the plane once by accident, two years ago. I bunch of screwdrivers, wire strippers, knife, etc. Funny thing is, I actually put my bag through the xray machine and it passed OK, but I had all these potential weapons in it.

    I got searched after setting off the metal detector once this year. Annoying thing was it was my watch, I asked beforehand if I should take it off and the guy said no it would be fine, and it set the alarm off. I knew immediately it was that, and said so, the guy agreed but I still got searched.

    Well, I have flown like 6 times in the past 3 weeks and I've have only gotten searched once, and only because I had a sweater on so they checked just my upper body, I never triggered the detector, seriously, just take off all metal and your shoes and nothing will happen.

    yeah but you might have something in there that you wouldn't expect to not be allowed and be caught off guard.
