Arrived Sept 01 and yes, now they are scanned once you have collected from carousal and as you clear customs.This routine being new to me as even last November the bags were scanned prior to collection.You seem to have been lucky before-I used to carry casks before but the bags would be marked with a chalk cross indicating excess alcohol.Then I would nonchalantly proceed to the toilet with bags and remove the chalk cross.In checked luggage I did get through a 1L stainless steel flask which they didn't seem concerned about.Sadly it was empty-bugger, I could have filled it.But all you need is one of them to want to check the flask and, if it were filled, want to know filled with what-hoping to earn their 'commission' for the day.Vodka you could try in a flask and state it is water.To me, very difficult to get extra alcohol through now.
