I got thru PIT w no beep. I wear a classic love and small love. I showed the female agent first and she said “you’ll be ok”. At MCO I beeped. The male TSO asked me to remove them, and I said “they are Cartier, I can’t.” I had the X-ray, and a brief stop at the pad. Another agent looked at me really quickly and let me thru. No pat downs or anything. I think we had a Cartier fan in Pittsburgh tho, bc that TSO was SO nice when I showed her my wrist first.

I hope that happens to me today. Heading to Portland, OR for a long weekend, and we head to Denver International Airport today for our flight. But it always beeps when I go through security. Just used to it, I guess. Lucky you!

I used to get beeped all the time. Now I only randomly get beeped. A TSA agent told me to wrap my pointer and thumb from my other hand through my bracelets (pinch my fingers around the whole stack if that makes sense), and it usually works.

Every airport I’ve been to in the last 3 months has been different (since I got the 3rd in my stack, the JUC small with diamonds), sometimes it beeps and sometimes it doesn’t. From JFK, O’Hare, DCA, LAS….doesn’t make sense. Every TSA officer in the pre-check line knows Cartier and I am usually just patted down. I don’t understand why the machines are different though….

Always a pat down (sometimes so extensive :sick:) and since you get that, you also get an explosives check :eek: That’s in Europe. In the US there’s the full body scanner.
Now I take them off before and screw them back on later. :rolleyes:

I’ve traveled through many airports in Asia (Tokyo-Haneda/Narita, Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, Seoul, and Singapore). Singapore is the only one that set off the alarm a couple of times but they didn’t care when they saw it was a bracelet. The last time I flew out the alarm didn’t go off.

Been through many major US airports and European ones as well but never set off anything there. I only have one regular Love on me.

I wonder if different people’s body chemistry (interacting with the jewelry) cause the different reactions to the metal detector :shocked: haha.
