Perhaps we should consider the stock of various adult "diaper" manufactures? US ORDERS AIRLINE TOILET-TRAINING International airline passengers have been directed not to queue outside the toilets on board flights bound for the United States under the latest security directive designed to combat a potential terror attack. The US Transport and Security Administration has issued the new directive which demands pilots make a pre-flight announcement banning passengers from congregating in aisles and outside the plane's toilets. The directive also orders flight attendants to check the toilets every two hours for suspicious packages. The Chief Executive of the Board of Airline Representatives of Australia, Warren Bennett, says the directive is impossible to monitor and appears to be US paranoia. He also says it could restrict passengers from exercising to avoid blood clots and deep-vein thrombosis on the 14 hour flight to the United States. "It's often the case that passengers, particularly in economy class, where it is not always easy to get up and move about the cabin, they combine the two activities, and walk around the cabin and queue at the toilet, and move their legs, jiggle their feet, stamp their feet and move their arms around a bit to get the exercises that are necessary to ward off the possibility of DVT." The latest directive follows a massive overhaul of US airline security measures, including the planned introduction of armed sky marshals on international flights, and electronic fingerprinting of those arriving in the US on visas. www9.sbs.com.au lurqer
