I had a security agent in the Dominican Republic refuse to allow me to take my regulator set onboard in carry luggage. He did offer to let me check them in and go thru another three hours of security when my plane was leaving in an hour or just plain give him the regulators so I wouldn’t miss my flight.
He claimed not to speak English well and had no supervisor when I refused to do either of those options.
Only after making a huge scene in a very loud voice calling for supervisor who spoke English, did a supervisor come over and let me pass with my regset in hand.
First and only time in the Dominican Republic. Corruption triggers it in that country.
