Obviously I know there are postboxes at airports (though I don't think they're always that easy to find), but I haven't paid a great deal of attention to airside postboxes - and I can imagine there may be whatever security concerns nowadays too. Airport post boxes are a special design with a transparent back: http://richardbaker.photoshelter.com...000H37o3FWcUQI Any reason for that?

If they can see what is in the box they can decide if special action is needed without disturbing the package. After that they are in the same position as with any abandoned item at the airport. |

2010, Buddenbrooks remarked: How does 'To stop the bloody IRA from putting bombs in them' sound? If they can see what is in the box they can decide if special action is needed without disturbing the package. Not if it has a pile of other letters on top of it. -- Roland Perry |
