Hi ecm56, many thanks for your feedback, much appreciated. That's good to know, so it shouldn't really be a problem. Is there any particular reason why both technologies are in use? I mean, why not just have the newer millimeter wave ones, if the decision was taken to go with that technology? Or is it that it depends on which destination you are travelling to, e.g. travellers to the US are asked to pass through the body scanners because security requirements are higher when flying to the US mainland? Or is selection simply randomly? Just curious because here in Europe it's one or the other, not a combination of both technologies.

On the off chance we decide to depart from the BVI, do you happen to know what the process is at Beef Island airport? I saw you posted over on the BVI forum, you seem to know both places well... ;-)

Cheers again
Steve
