Hello; just joined the forum
My apologies for I know I'm posting something already addressed, but from what I've read no members mentioned taking their detector to Europe or across the Atlantic in general (just inside US, bahamas, Puerto Rico etc) and wanted to know if different advice applies.
I'm traveling overseas this summer to Eastern Europe to visit family and want to take my Tesoro Vaquero with me. I'm really concerned about having it confiscated by baggage checkers, especially in the Eastern block, just because "they can" even though it's not strictly mentioned as prohibited according to the airline. Should I be worried? Lufthansa (what i'll be flying) mentions that strongly magnetic materials are prohibited in their list of prohibited items; would my detector qualify? Any other tips as to where/how to pack it?
Thank you so much, and its nice meeting all of you
