The scanners DO use x-ray, which is cumulative and therefore it's dangerous not only for pregnant women, but for all passengers. In addition, they see people naked, which is unethical. You can OPT OUT.

May I take some full cans (soup, fruits etc) to my checked luggage? I'm travelling from JFK to Paris and then to Poland?

Thank you

I recently booked a flight from Ecuador to NY for vacations, to go in november, but I just found out I am pregnant, and I already have my ticket. I am concerned about the x ray filters I should pass through, and the risk for my baby. Can I avoid passing the x ray frame? Should I bring a certificate? I suppose I should be checked, and I am willing to everything but x rays.

You do not go through the xray machine, only your bags and personal items. You will walk through a metal detector after you take everything out of your pockets and any metallic jewelry, etc. to go through the xray There is no radiation involved walking through the metal detector however if you are concerned you can ask to bypass the metal detector and ask for a private screening.

My father is travelingn from Istanbul to Toronto with a connection through JFK. Can he purchase a full size bottle of alcohol in Turkey and take it with him all the way to Toronto?

Or does he have to somehow get it into his lugguage before he heads to Toronto and go through security again? Will he have an opportunity to do that?

He is on a Delta flight.
