A re-run?

"A decade ago authorities in Asia foiled an al-Qaeda plot eerily similar to the one just stopped in Great Britain. Though details are still sketchy, the broad outlines of the foiled plot to bomb airliners plying the Atlantic are eerily reminiscent of a decade-old attempt by an al-Qaeda-linked group to massacre hundreds of airline passengers — in that case aimed at U.S. airlines flying over the Pacific. That plot too targeted a dozen or so airliners and aimed to use a liquid explosive, a nitroglycerine-based concoction that was to have been smuggled on to the aircraft in hand baggage. The plot, codenamed Bojinka — a play on the Serbo-Croatian word for explosion — by its Pakistani planners, came frighteningly close to fruition.

In December of 1994, according to U.S. court documents, Ramzi Yousef and Wali Khan Amin Shah, were instrumental in the bombing of a Philippine airlines flight en route to Japan that was a dry run for their much more ambitious attempt to blow up a dozen jets simultaneously. They managed to smuggle a container of liquid explosive concealed in contact lens solution aboard the airplane on an earlier flight, leaving it under a seat in row 26. The
explosion killed a Japanese man and forced the plane to make an emergency landing. Both men were later captured by police — and details of the plot uncovered — after they accidentally set off an explosion in the Manila apartment they were using as a bomb factory. ..etc.."

Im just curious as to how this will effect Duty Free shops at airports. The hand-luggage restrictions will probably die down with time, especially with businesses complaining that they need to have their computer with them at all times and to be able to use it during the flight, as it contains important information that needs to be safe. Surely airports can still allow people to buy alcohol, cigarettes, matches etc in Duty Free areas after check in after this incident in London?!
