Being fair outside of usa and western Europe, does anyone else even remember 9/11? As changing to global politics as it initially was, why would the rest of the world care now more than a decade after? Unless it's one of the countries invaded by USA after.

I remember it every time I had to pour the water out of my water bottle and fill it again after I passed the security in the airport. Such a waste of time and effort.

Also I remember when I was a kid, the pilots allowed me into the cockpit during the flight and I was fascinated. After 9/11 it's no longer possible.

The pilot let my 3-year-old into the cockpit in 2019. So, I guess that still happens post 9/11.

Was that on the ground or in flight? For me it was during the flight, almost like the Airplane! scene, but without the Turkish prison references.

Oh, it was on the ground just as we were entering the plane.
