One flaw with the no carry on provision that you mention is that all the stores/shops in airport terminals will be shut down. I can't really see that happening in the near future.

Well, just off the top of my head:
Heathrow: de facto shopping mall/food court after security check-in
Gatwick: Ditto
Istanbul: Ditto
Frankfurt: Ditto
Kiev: Ditto
Dublin: Ditto
Philadelphia: Ditto
Toronto: Ditto
Vancouver: Ditto
San Fran: Ditto
Face it, Airport terminals cater to travellers whims and that includes being able to buy cans of caviar, drink a pint, buy electronics gear etc... And don't forget the business class lounges with full china/silverware amenities.
Thanks for everyone's response. I figured that the phone lines would be jammed etc (another sister-in-law actually called the one number we had) but I needed to get that bit of info. Once again thanks for the input.
Sorry for being selfish and/or offtopic, but can anyone from New York tell me if there are residential areas near the World Trade Center?
My sister-in-law is visiting some guy in New York and we can't get in touch with her (which is driving my wife crazy). All we know is that he is doing an Engineering PHD at a University in New York City.
I'm pretty sure that she would be okay, but would appreciate any insight on the surrounding neighbourhoods. Thanks in advance.
