Only reasonably large (the detector and x-ray machine are calibrated every morning) metal objects will set it off, so unless your Metal Mickey you will be fine.


S Csparky
no but they will show on the scan though.!!


J D
aren't condoms made of plastic? why would they make a metal detector beep? Plus they won't go through the metal detector, they will go through the xray machine. You shouldn't have anything in your hand but your boarding pass.


djdaveyuk
Don't be daft. Paranoia or what. Your hand luggage doesn't go through a 'beeper' anyway, it goes through an X-ray machine and they check everything.

They'll not set the beeper off but they'll no what you're up to don't worry about that! ha ha

no they wont, but the people in customs will probably check them out, people have tried taking drugs through customs in sealed condom in there wallets, so its one thing that makes them parranoid, you should just put them in ure actual luggage, or are you planning to get lucky on the plain! ;]


Babes'
haha , so your serious too chelsee :D glad to see ya gettin things prepared for turkey lmao !

Not the x-ray thing, no.

It will, however, set off the special "Condom Scanner" that airports are now required to have to prevent terrorists from having sex with law-abiding citizens.

Are your condoms metal reinforced then? No they wont set the sensors off, but you may get your bag randomly searched.


joe g

no. braces don't set it off, neither do metal snaps. you should be fine


TNK GD IT´S FRIDAY!
why is everyone snapping at u?i never thought about metal wrappers beeping but it would make sense if they did.
good luck.and good for you being responsible!


Matty
Of course not - only metals set the alarm off.

If yours are the armour plated type, then yes they will.

condoms = rubber
not metal
so no beep


litterbug_kid
Nah since they only detect metal things.


Chris
people on here are so ignorant, there are scans to check for liquid now, so they might well stop you and check your bag after it has been scanned, my bag did when it had condoms in, but it also had lots of other liquid things, lol
