I've always had to remove my belt before going through the metal detectors (and body scanners), just because of the metal buckle obviously.

Now I usually wear a belt with a carbon fiber buckle. Much less hassle!

I don't travel enough to be worth it, but it's a good tip!

As a Kickstarter backer, I paid somewhat less than their current prices for carbon fiber buckles. I also have a couple of their metal-buckle belts, and I definitely prefer the carbon fiber ones.
