X-Rays and Film
Lurking around some film forums, I find a number of threads about airport X-rays fears. I would have thought the matter was settled a long time ago.
In a word: they are harmless.
The films will get more rays in the cabin during the flight than from the inspections. Heck, they even get more ray just sitting on the ground.
That’s for carry-on luggage. Checked-in baggage gets scanned by much more powerful rays and they are deadly for film. So, always carry your film with you and it will be safe.
Protection cases are a bad idea. For carry-on luggage the operator just increases the power until he/she sees through the case. For checked-in baggage it will most likely result in manual baggage inspection.
