Is it safe to carry this film through airport scanners without special packaging?

No, you shouldn't let the film go through the scanner. You should ask to an officer to make manual check of this film. I have done in several times when I travel with film and they have never say no.

I just went recently. It will be fine if you put it on your carry on luggage (that's what I did). I heard that the checked baggage X-rays are much stronger so it'll destroy your film. Carry on baggage is fine.

I've taken it through the scanner several times, no problems with my film already loaded into the camera nor the extra packages I was carrying in the bag still in their foil packaging. Hope this helps others!

I don't know the official Fuji answer but we haven't seen any issues going through the scanners.

I am not a TSA officer, so I'm not sure. They aren't weapons, but I would put them in my checked bags rather than carry-on. Just in case.

The packaging for this product says it is "adventure-proof design; lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum, waterproof to 200 meters, with the high performance of USB 3.0". I am not positive but it certainly sounds like a product that would be fine in airport scanners.

I don't know how TSA guidelines would really apply as it pertains to flying to be honest. It comes well packages and I would have been comfortable traveling with it. It can be kept out of the fridge fort a time with no significant problems arising as well. As for an exact time, I cannot provide this. I would recommend just having it shopped to your home location

I brought this in my carry-on from KC to Ft. Meyers, FL. No issues at all. Passed through the scanner with no questions asked.

Yes. The only time you need the sleeve is if the original picture is wrinkled, on very thin paper, or uneven (like with glue or something on the back). It is possible a print in good condition without the sleeve might get jammed in the scanner and wrinkle, but I never had it happen.

I used to work for TSA. This is a prohibited item and cannot be taken aboard or packed in your checked luggage. If found, it will be confiscated and destroyed.

i can't give U a simple Y or N 'cause: (1) i did not try to take it aboard the plane in my carry-on & (2) re the suitcase I checked, the "thing" was empty as I did not fill it until i arrived in south america where i filled it prior to boarding the cruise ship (which does not allow "spirits" 2 B brought on-board. it went through the ship's version of TSP just fine because they did not do a full body scan nor a pat down and it was in my jacket pocket & I was not required to send my jacket through the scanner. nevertheless, i thick the quality of the "thing" looks fine & i had no problem with any leakage, so I plan to use it again and again. suggestions: put the "thing" in your carry-on & not on your carry aboard luggage as i don't think it would make it through an airport TSP check, which only allows a max of 4 oz; consider filling it only 1/2 full to minimize any loss due to discovery; wait to fill it until U R at your destination & not boarding a plane but rather a cruise ship or attending a concert or whatever, and don't put it in your backpack which is more likely to be searched than your jacket or crotch or whatever. hope this helps a tad. abe

I cant say for sure, but I know that I would not try to bring it on a flight. Look on the TSA website - they have a page of confiscated items.

I traveled with mine in my checked luggage, no problems! Follow the directions included and you're good to go.

If you mean the airport control, I am afraid you cannot. Once I saw (may be 10 years ago) the Swiss knife was confiscated in the airport. It is better to clarify this issue with appropriate authorities. I think, if you do not have a check out bas, it may be a problem.

It would probably be possible to pack this full enough of uncompressible items that it would no longer go through the metal detectors and therefore could not be carryon. But you'd have to work at it, and probably could barely lift it. I've used it as a carryon for a roundtrip flight, there were no issues with the laptop, various bits of hardware, and a weekend's worth of clothes and toiletries.

Yes and yes. There is a 2-1/4 film holder you need to slide the film into to scan it.

Definitely not, especially with how much airport security has beefed up. You could probably leave it in the checked luggage though.

I've flown with them domestically and internationally without any problems. I didn't pack them in a ziplock, just tucked in my carry on.

Probably not, I bought mine and 80$ of film and it was wrecked and expired. Be warned.

Yes it is. This is proof that it is being kept in a dust free atmosphere, and that it had not been tampered with. I wouldn't accept one without it being in the bag with a seal that has not been broken.
