searches at airport

I would <size=+6>strongly</size> advise against going thru the scanners there is now law saying you have too. Ive been working in Medical Radiaton for many years so trust me you get enough radiation when you fly. You don't a high powered CAT scan to prove you're not a fucking terrorist. Oh by the way I don't want to offend people but it was these wacky implementations of security that ****** started in the name of national security.

So the whole jist of this is calling the TSA to find the correct way of bringing 100 Franklin's in for a 1 month stay in any country?

This is a link for carrying cash through the new screens.

This was a directive at the TSA web site.
Screening
Q. Will I be delayed during screening if I am carrying large amounts of cash?
A. TSA does not restrict passengers from carrying cash through our security checkpoints. However, when TSA discovers a passenger carrying a sum of cash that appears to be in excess of $10,000 and the passenger is traveling to a location outside of the United States, TSA may notify U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to ensure compliance with international currency-reporting requirements. Also, TSA may notify law enforcement officers if cash is discovered during the security screening process that appears to be related to criminal activity based on factors such as the quantity, packaging, circumstances of discovery, or the method by which it is carried. Correct me if I’m wrong but this info doesn’t say if you can hold your cash in your hand while going thru.

Here is a link for a money belt which has zippered pockets on the back side it also has a plastic buckle.

I've traveld a lot in the past and I have been told that each airport handles screening a bit different and I have found this to be generally true. I used to travel out of O'hare in Chicago and they would not let me hold a wallet in my hand and had to put it into a doggy tray for all to see and swipe possibly...

I usually have a spot in my carry-on that I put my wallet, watch and etc. On about one out of ten trips they take a look through the bag and each time tsa did it in front of me... If I am carrying extra cash, I will put it into an envelope and keep it in my pocket when going through the scanners or I will put it into a spot in the carry-on that is zippered so some would have to take it out. If it's a lot of money I usually divide it into two...

All that being said, I have never had any problem with money or valuables going missing...just stuff getting destroyed or taken in my checked-in baggage...which is another story... That is why I keep my valuables with me or in my carry-on... Also, I don't use a normal carry-on, I use a bag that has a strap that cannot be easily cut and stolen... I like the heavy ballistic nylon bags and usually buy a seperate heavy strap that also makes carrying a heavy bag easier...
