re: #147 keithgabryelski

1) you must stand near your bag as it is being compressed and decompressed (if it blows you should be the first victim)
2) packages get spit out of the compression machine into a padded wall and onto a rubber mat (jarring my case of wine as I let out a little scream).
3) the interview, itself, was not polite — and not meant to be.

Weird- I’ve flown El Al a lot and never dealt with the flying bags from a compression machine myself and the interviews have always been curt but polite. You’re saying they were rude to you?
