Flyiing With a Camera
Posted: Sat 17 Jun 2017, 07:35
I had thought that it was just laptops covered by the recent ban on travellers flying to the US from certain countries in the Middle East. It turns out that camera bodies are included as well and there are suggestions that the ban will be extended to passengers departing from Europe. The UK has followed the US lead, although I have not checked whether cameras are included. The point is that regulations are changing and could be adopted by other countries as they respond to terrorist threats. And the rules which apply might be amended at very short notice, as happened at least twice in recent years to my knowledge. The arrangements which pertained when setting out on a trip might not remain the same for its duration.
