Re: Security Checkpoint with DBB

[Guest guest]

HI,

When was 3 months old we went on the first flight with the dbb and we

have now been on about 20 flights. We have only been asked to take his bar off

one and I asked to speak to the person in charge because hated the bar at

this point and I knew if I took it off and put it back on he would scream the

whole flight. so I explained to the guy that it was a lot of work to put on and

off and that I had never had to take them off beofr and he looked at them and

said that if they are medical that I should never be asked to take them off of

him and that I should just expect to be searched every time I went though so

that is what I do it sometimes it seems like more work at the time ( I fly just

me and the Baby) but it is nice to have a nice quite flight

be removed.

We went to the airport to pick up relatives while Jake was in the

DBB...we went thru the security checkpoint and of course he set off the

alarms. Rather than having us take the shoes off, the security guard

used a hand-scanner to scan his entire body and of course found that it

was the bar setting the alarms off. Hope this helps!

I just travelled a week ago with Owen. I was asked to remove them

and send them through the x-ray machine. For us, it wasn't a big

deal since Owen wears them 14 hours per day. I tried to make sure

that he had done his full 14 hours by the time we had to go through

security so it wasn't such a big deal for us.

I did similar going to Iowa ... just left the shoes in the carry on bag. They

had us set to search anyway because of all the medical crud we had with us, so

it was easier for them to deal with packing and unpacking the carry on

(especially since they had to anyway because of the epi-pens, inhalers, and

other meds). That way I just got to sit back in the chair and laugh at their

attempts to get everything back into the bag the way I had it! hehe
