Transporting pins

[abrown1087]

In 19 days i'll be heading to WDW. I have a few pins I want to trade on a lanyard. Should I just wear the lanyard to the airport? Stick it in my carry on? or put in the checked luggage? I feel dumb and I can't seem to remember how we did it in the past although i've never taken pins with me before only taken them home lol

I always carry my pins in my carry on luggage and I have never had a problem. I would not check them!

Good to know as we will be flying to Disney in a little less than 2 months & definitely dont want my pins to turn up missing/lost!

I've flown with pins dozens of times and always take them carryon. I combine all into a clear ziplock (pin bags excluded) and when at X rays I take the bag(s) out and put it in a silver bin with the laptop, liquid bag etc.. Then when they get 'checked' its not causing my whole bag to be searched- Never had any issues at 'disney airports' (MCO/LAX/SNA) if I left them in bag but its a process I've just adopted

i am bringing 2 big trade bags this time so i have to check on in the luggage...ugggg Usually i bring one bag and a mini day trader bag and bring on carry on...sometimes the luggage go's through xray twice and the TSA all turn around and look at me (in a mickey shirt usually) nod heads and push the bag through LOL...never ever had a problem bringing them.
