Perhaps you mean "Geneva is in Schengen". Anyway, agree about the baggage -- KLM managed to lose mine twice out of three times when flying through Amsterdam.

comment Avoiding the traveller's 'fanny pack' / money-belt

comment Can I take this on a plane?
@Prashanth: Quite the contrary. Just because you carry a handful of components doesn't necessarily mean they are intended to be assembled together, while a completed device that looks like on the picture will definitely raise more questions and suspicions. As long as you are forward with what you are carrying and cooperate with the security personnel, you should be fine.
