Airport Security
Airline security is a major issue. Expect to have your hand luggage searched before you will be allowed into an airport gate area. When you go through the security gate, keep your photographic films away from the X-ray scanner. If you have computer software or cassette tapes, which are magnetic, put it through the X-ray scanner and not through the metal detector you walk through, which can damage the magnetic data. Wait patiently, cooperate with the security personnel and do not joke about airline hijacking or terrorism.
