Items I can take in hold luggage on flight?
Hi all,
I would be really grateful if someone could offer me some advice on what I can and cannot take on board in my hold luggage flight with British Airways. I have looked on their website and cannot seem to obtain accurate information.
I am moving to Turkey this weekend and I want to take a metal kettle and metal toaster are these items allowed in hold luggage or because they are metal will they be detected and withdrawn from my hold luggage, they are wedding gifts and were very expesive items I would hate to take them and they are confiscated. My question is can these metal items be taken in the hold luggage, not hand baggage thanks anyone who can offer some accurate infomation
ICD/Pacemaker & Airport Metal Detectors?
I’ve had an ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) since I was 16 and I’ve been on holiday 2 times since then. I always tell the security staff at the airport that I have an ICD and they just let me go around with a brief hands on search.
Does anyone else here have an ICD/Pacemaker, and do you go through the metal detector and if so have you had any problems? I’m thinking about just going through the metal detectors to save the hassle of manual searching.
2 years on, I’m still coping but I’m getting there…
Yes, I have a sheet that has all my ICD info on it, the security staff at the airport don’t usually ask to see it when I ask to go around the metal detectors anyway.
Is it safe to walk through the metal detectors? Will it set it off?
I’ve never been through it yet with my ICD.
Has anyone here done so before?
Thank you for all your advice. I will just continue to ask to go around the metal detectors just to be safe.
New Bill Allows Random STRIP SEARCHES of Children. (Does This Make Kids Safer?)?

The Student Teacher Safety Act of 2006 (HR 5295) would require any school receiving federal funding–essentially every public school–to adopt policies requiring teachers and school officials to conduct random, warrantless searches of every student, at any time, on the flimsiest of pretexts. Saying they suspect that one student might have drugs could give officials the authority to search every student in the building.
These searches could take the form of pat-downs, bag searches, or strip searches depending on how administrators interpret the law.
House leaders circumvented the usual legislative procedure to bring the bill to a quick vote. It did not pass through the committee process, but went straight to the House floor. There, it was passed by a simple voice vote, so constituents cannot even find out how their Representative voted.
***Metal detectors, cameras. Im afraid of the kind of adults theses kids will become.
Yeah JANE!
