p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Electronics Restrictions: Traveling from Istanbul to SFO


I will be traveling from Istanbul to SFO by Turkish Airlines in July and was wondering if anyone had traveled that route since the camera, iPad, large electronics, etc. restrictions were put into place.
I am prepared to check in the camera body and an iPad but I am really hoping not to have to check in lenses as well. From the Turkish Airlines website I've gathered that they allow a separate "check-in" for the electronics gear at the gate where the equipment is tagged separately for pickup at the arrival airport. Does anyone have first hand knowledge of what the whole experience is like?

Thank you for the link. Looks like lenses aren't being checked in which is a huge relief.
