Moment plane passenger is seen cutting up food with kitchen KNIFE – and everyone is asking the same question

PLANE passengers were left puzzled when one tourist pulled out a kitchen knife. Footage shared on TikTok shows the traveller brazenly using the chunky blade to chop up their food. tiktok/@singapore_Other passengers couldn’t understand how they got a knife on the plane[/caption] But people sitting around the passenger were baffled how they got the knife through customs at an airport in Singapore. The caption reads: “How [did] he manage(d) to get that thing through customs clearance?” One viewer commented: “From which airport did you embark this flight. “Their security at airport are not focussing on their job while his bag goes through into x ray machine.” Another added: “And security has the audacity to confiscate my water bottle.” A third wrote: “OMG it’s so dangerous.” Knives and sharp blades are banned from being carried in hand luggage. It comes after a butcher said he took a four-inch knife on a plane to Spain after packing the blade in his case by mistake – but had his shampoo confiscated. Latimer Higham, from Derby, claims he managed to sneak the lethal penknife on to a flight from East Midlands Airport to Lanzarote. He said customs checked his case after it was X-ray scanned, but security failed to spot the knife back in 2019 But when the scanner beeped they removed shampoo he had packed by accident, he said. Latimer said: “I unpacked my case when I got to Lanzarote and thought oh my god, how on earth has that got in there. “It is disgusting that I managed to get on a plane with a knife. “Something like this could have serious consequences if someone with the wrong intentions did it.” He added: “A knife like this could be used as a serious weapon.”
