14. Sweden
Scandinavian countries were recommended a couple of times as countries with strictest customs, border control and airport security in the world. Having traveled to Denmark and Sweden by plane, we have to say that the airport staff in both countries is very polite but you do have to take out all electronics (including camera lenses) and place them in separate containers to get them checked. Luggage is x-rayed in order to minimize chances of bringing anything illegal on board. Security rules are strict on all Swedish airports, regardless of size. The effectiveness of this move is visible on the example of an airport in Vasteras (which has only three international departures) when airport security caught a man trying to board the plane with a handgun.
