You can hand carry and request manual inspection. Or at least you used too. I did that and it took them forever as the swabbed each film holder and each box of film. What a pain in the a**, but I took my film.Quote:

They also had new CT scanners, so scanning there is not a good idea.
Arlanda (Stockholm) was harder to get a commitment for hand checking beforehand. Seems there is no legal ground for hand checking photographic film Sweden (as for example medical equipment and other stuff). It's all up to the acting security supervisor in place to decide.
But there are two terminals, number four and five. Terminal four still has old scanners that presumably are film safe up to ISO 800 and terminal five has new CT scanners. And even if you fly from number five you can go through security in terminal four and then transfer to five airside. And this was a tip from the security officer.
In the end I asked for a manual check in terminal four and they obliged without any questions.
Cool. I try not to fly anymore. Too much hassle and I doubt I will ever afford to travel overseas in today's insane market.Quote:

Very well done! Iceland base upon what I am seeing is the consummate challenge of working at the extremes. Lots of coal blacks and paper whites. You did a fabulous job of holding the textures in the blacks which greatly added to its visual composition. Bravo!Quote:
