A typical roll of film has been scanned between 5 and 10 times at airports and train stations (standard practice in Spain to get on the high-speed trains, even before March 11) by the time it gets developed. Not a trace of any effect whatsoever. Same is true of the Neopan 1600 that I also use. Just do not put it in your checked baggage.
