Tiffany I flew with the Book Port this summer. It went through security
inside my purse and I had no problems.

Subject: [bookport] BP and x-ray machines
Hello.
Next week I'm going to have a long trip to Europe, so will want to take the
BP on the plane. I was just curious if there was anything to do to protect
it, specifically the card, from the x-ray machine.
I ask this because for many many years I traveled once or twice a month with
my braille lite, and it wasn't until many years afterwards until I once read
on the blindtech listserve that note takers shouldn't be put through the
machine, and that a hand want was a lot safer for it, though I don't know
why. I thought files were saved by some means of magnetism, and don't medal
detectors work on similar principles? Either way, should I be weary of my
card going through either the x-ray machine or the hand wand?
