The Vilnius Airport in Lithuania now features a unique Christmas tree made entirely from the items confiscated at the airport. It took around a month to create and it’s meant to send an educational message.
The tree consists of knives, blades, lighters, bullets, and similar objects. “We are certain that you have seen many different Christmas trees – natural, modern, innovative, and simply quirky. We can guarantee – you haven’t seen anything like this,” we read on the airport’s Instagram. There’s also a regular tree, decorated with gold ornaments, that celebrates the holidays.
The tree became a part of the airport’s Instagram feed, with a few photos that show it in all its glory. You can see the start on top of it that was made of cheese-cutting knives. “If you don’t want your personal, yet prohibited, belongings to land on our next year’s Christmas tree – better check out the baggage requirements before you pack for your next flight,” the airport writes.
The tree is around 5 feet high and serves as a reminder to all to travel safely and be mindful of what’s in the luggage and carry-on bags.
