Actually John, you do need to go thru security for in country flights as well as Int'l departures...rememeber that little bottleneck at the far end of the check in areas ( Opposite end of room from Tropic), just before the doors that go to departure lounge?Usually no big deal, by our standards, however.
Only once did I seea problem. Security personnel really loved a football that a kid had and wouldn't allow him to take it through. Ya gotta watch out for exploding footballs, ya know!
