hi friends,

dunno where to put it so asking here. i will be traveling with my laptop soon. What is the check in required at the airport? can it be passed through X-Rays et al?

TIA

none of you guys have traveled with your laptops before? any help?

you can safely put it thru X-Ray..actually you don't have a choice...you have to

It's onl;y the hand held metal detectors that put the laptop hdd at a risk...no issues with X-Ray

Yes you can safely carry your Laptop.
I would advice you to carry it in your handbag & do not forget to tell them that you are carryin your laptop with you.Also ask them to jot down in your passport that you are carrying your laptop.If you dont do so and when you return back to india,they will ask you why didnt you have it jotted down in your passport and may be they will charge you for that.
So its better to either carry the original bill with you or else have an entry in ur passport for carrying laptop.

Cheers,
KD
