I have been travelling 1-2 times a week for the last 4 years with my laptop and 
it has been
x-rayed every time. And it still works like a dream :)

although my worst nightmare would be that when i boot up the machine a Windows 
os would appear *lol*

Subject: airline travel with hitech gear? (a bit offtopic)


Hi,


I know it has little to do with debian on laptops (altough a non-windows
OS booting meight look suspecious to customs), but:

What advice can experienced travellers give me on flying with a laptop?

I don't want to take any chances with the baggage (especially since I
won't have a direct flight), so I'll have to keep it in the
hand-luggage.

Can laptops (and digital photocameras) survive the xrays used? Or should
I remove the tech gear and offer it for in spection to the guards? (Or
wrap it in alu foil? :p)

Any other usefull hints are also welcome...
