Whilst the recent EgyptAir hijacking was no laughing matter, it quickly became farcical.
Firstly, we had the Alexandria airport security staff who did not spot the "suicide belt". Then news reports saying that the hijacker was 27; one Sky News newsreader openly questioned that on-air. Add to that the Greek Cypriot President's joke about these incidents always involving a woman. The passenger/crew member escaping from the cockpit window instead of down the steps. The selfie that was not a selfie and the guy's employer wanting a chat with him when he returns. Now we find out that cabin crew actually asked him to pose for the photos, then he took one of a stewardess with the hijacker, so that they could send them to the Cypriot Police.
There are so many comments that could be passed, but the Egyptians really need to get their act together and improve security instead of feeling miffed that outsiders are trying to tell them what to do.
