Jaunted's Complete Guide To Full-Body Scanning at Airports

January 8, 2010 at 9:49 AM | by | Comments (2)

There's going to be a lot of talk about full-body scanners in 2010, we can tell. So in an effort to help you understand what airports will have them, what happens when you use them, and your rights, we've dedicated a week to explaining it all in Full-Body Scanners 101.

We're not even a month into the year and already it's already obvious that media will be wasting a whole lot of breath on the issue of full-body scanners in airports. Just to set all the facts out there and help you to be more informed flyers, we looked at everything from the two different types of scanner machines and their radiation levels to whether or not you really have to go through one when the TSA agent tell you.

Catch our four short lessons below on the need-to-knows behind full-body scanning, but more than anything remember one thing: don't let TSA agents or these big humming machines intimidate you.

Add Toronto to the list

Where I just refused to be scanned. Let's see - untested technology rushed in as a quick response to a threat that would and could have been caught with normal procedures. Politicians and TSA claim it's safe and they would never lie or be misinformed. Sometimes you have to stand up to them (although I understand that won't be an option in the UK where if you refuse then you don't fly).
