Tips on packing your
checked baggage
Certain items are not permitted aboard an
aircraft, whether it is placed in your carry-on
or your checked baggage. Please consult the
Permitted and Prohibited Items list and the following tips when packing
your checked baggage: |
-
Your checked baggage may be subject to a physical search. Please
pack your baggage efficiently and place personal items (i.e. toothbrush)
in clear plastic bags;
-
Passengers are advised to pack their film in their carry-on baggage. The equipment used at pre-board screening (PBS) areas will not damage film under 800 ISO/ASA. However, multiple exposures (more than 5 times) of the same roll of film to PBS x-ray inspection may cause damage. Most amateur photographers use film in the 100-400 ISO/ASA range. Specialty film is defined as film with an ASA/ISO 800 or higher and typically used by professionals. If passengers are concerned about their film, once they have placed it in their carry-on baggage, they may request a hand search at the PBS area. Please note that physical search of films will be carried when circumstances permit;
- Do not wrap gifts. Their contents may need to be inspected.
