Scanning bags on arrival?
« on: March 24, 2015, 04:43:29 PM »
I have read on a different forum that bags are now being scanned on arrival (Dalaman) and at the airport exit (Antalya). It was on a thread related to bringing alcohol in your suitcase which had been bought in the UK and excess duty free in hand luggage.

Can anyone confirm this is now happening in Dalaman?

Some friends have recently come through Dalaman, no scanning done. Have heard this previously & Nothing seemed again to be happening.

At Dalaman there is scanning facilities at customs just before the exit, in the past I have had luggage scanned and when I travelled in March they were putting someone's luggage through it, seems to be random selection, as there is no queue you are not delayed.
I have a very responsible position...

We arrived on Sunday and some bags were being scanned at Dalaman at the exit including both of ours.  Mine was pulled out to be opened but it wasn't clear what they thought they had detected.  There were no liquids in it, so they couldn't have thought it contained bottles of alcohol.  After looking at the breakfast cereal and tea they gave up looking and let us on our way.  There were no signs that I saw to indicate you had to declare particular things.  I had some metal shelf brackets and tins which would have shown up but didn't think they were a problem to bring in.
