Should I expect any issues with Compass and Airport Security?
The Compass was designed specifically for travel; to be used anywhere you use your iPad including an airplane. Although It doesn't violate any TSA restrictions we know of, just like your keys in your pockets or other unfamiliar metal items in your carry-on bag, it may help speed things along to take the Compass stand out and send it through separately. The Twelve South team travels with Compass without any problems - except with TSA officers wanting one.
