Lithuanian airports decided to remind their passengers about aviation safety in the most unexpected way. As of starting the new summer season, Vilnius International Airport greets its passengers with a festive art piece—a colorful Easter egg made from items that are not permitted on board.
This 1.5-meter (5 ft.) high installation is made of more than 1,000 knives, scissors, lighters, shaving blades and other dangerous items, which passengers had to leave before their flights.
According to Vilnius Airport, the idea behind the art piece was born from observing the growing number of items left by people at the checkpoints, “which is particularly relevant issue at the beginning of the summer aviation season, when the number of passengers increases.”
