Re: So when

Fairly standard for a few people I know.

My uncle regularly gets the full cavity search treatment due to having lots of middle eastern stamps in his passport. He's a H&S manager in petrochemicals so is often in places like Iraq, Saudi Arabia etc.

I once worked with one guy who was looking at the timber industry in Peru. His flight back was via Venezuela with a change in Miami. As soon as he landed he was whisked off the plane, strip searched and marched onto his next plane under armed escort and the passengers in the seats next to him replaced with armed air marshalls all the way back to London. To make matters even more perverse the client who had arranged his trip to Peru? The US State Dept.
