Hi Phil, perhaps you are right, though I prefer to err on the side of caution (or perhaps will buy a lead lined bag and do an experiment on my next flight 😊).

On occasion security staff that was not happy with their initial xray scan have had me unpack my bag into a tray and sent it through the machine a second time 🥺(usually if the bag contains dense items like leicas and lenses)…

As so often you may find additional info on the web, for example: https://petapixel.com/2021/07/06/what-happens-if-your-film-goes-through-the-tsas-ct-scanners/

and:

https://thedarkroom.com/bringing-film-airport-security-x-rays-film/

PS:

Furthermore I observe that increasingly musea have x-ray scanners installed, from the Hagia Sophia to the Musée D’Orasay, so it may be prudent to take precautions there as well.

And there are now stories of carriers, such as UPS, scanning exposed film despite warning labels. I think any time we use airplanes to transport film, there is a risk, whether great or small. I finally bought a digital camera (used HB 907x 50c) for international travel. Domestically, I have B&H send the film ahead and use the US Post Office to ship my film home (super fast and cheap: I left San Francisco on Monday, my son mailed my film that afternoon, and it arrived to my East Coast address this morning! Fingers crossed the Ektachrome wasn't scanned....)

I’m sure it’s a conspiracy, nefariously orchestrated by the digital mafia 🫣
