Yes

No

I’ve been searched a number of times. You just let them do it. From experience if you give them any suspicion by trying not to have your luggage searched, you will not be allowed on and you will have a full search carried out, including personal one.

You can say you don’t want to, but they’ll deny you access to your flight as refusing automatically makes you a risk.

I don't believe they'd let you on the plane if you didn't, so kind of a no-brainer to just let them

You can't exactly say no without raising suspicions. I would have to let them. Some battles are not worth getting into.

Depends. Can you legally say no? I have nothing illegal in my suitcase but that doesn’t mean I want someone going through it.

Don't think I would have much of a choice?
