Your memory cards can go through the xray machine in or out of your  
camera but do not allow them to go through the metal detecting scanner.  
 That means don't put your memory card in your pocket and then walk  
through the scanner.
The scanner is the upright cage next to the xray machines at the  
airport which all persons must walk trough. It beeps if you have coins  
or other metal objects in your pockets.
