When I go on the plane to go across the country in July, will I have to take out my piercings?

I think most of them are surgical steel. I’m only worried about this cause my parents don’t know about ALL of them. If so, then i guess i’m gonna have to get plastic ? :L

Answer #1

I don’t think so. Bracelets, maybe. But I don’t think you have to take out piercings.

Answer #2

probably not. most earings and body jewlery don’t go off in the metal detectors. If it does they’ll just tell you to take them out and walk through again but they most likely won’t

Answer #3

I’ve never had to, and I have a few that would be really awkward to have to take out in public too :LL

Answer #4

well if it does go off you might just have to show it to them. hope you didnt pierce anything private…i dont think they’ll make you show that though:)

Answer #5

depending what they are made out of, some are madeout of different material, I;m trying to rememebr if my sisters did… she had lots of them all over.. and I don’t think ..she had too

Answer #6

haha nah, i’m just worried about my parents getting all bootytickled cause they hate when i get more piercings without consent. :L

Answer #7

ohh goodness. xD

Answer #8

i think their all surgical steel.

Answer #9

aaaaahhhh:)

Answer #10

Those things at the airport don’t buzz if you have piercings… I checked ;)

Answer #11

Most likely not. I have tons of piercings and have never had to take mine out. I have a metal tongue ring that didn’t even go off so you should most likely be fine. But if ur worried then get plastic ones.

Answer #12

Even my belly button piercing didn’t go off and for sure I thought it would.

Answer #13

I’m pretty sure you don’t need to take any of them out, but if they ask you to take them out, you should. I’ve flown a lot and despite being searched twice, I’ve never had to deal with anything metal being detected on my body.

You could always opt for the pat down. :)
