The security device that examines carry-on items placed
on a conveyor belt uses x-rays and is safe for the notebook
and diskettes.
The walk-through security device and the handheld
security wands are magnetic and may damage the
notebook or diskettes.
Carry your notebook as hand baggage. Do not check it
with the rest of your luggage.
Check in advance with the airline if you plan to use the
notebook during a flight. In-flight notebook use is at the
discretion of the airline.
