I always put my film in hand luggage.
So far all rolls are fine. Even Pro-H 800 midformat roll, when i
travelled back from Kathmandu (Nepal) via Delhi airport.
Sometimes i have ben asked to open my bag, but when they see my camera -
no questions :)

I refuse to fly with film anymore. Too many chances for it to be ruined.
If I needed to shoot film somewhere I had to fly to, I'd ship it ahead
via courier. I shoot at that location and have the film processed there,
I don't take the exposed film back through security either.

Well, seems almost certain a trip of yours trully around part of the
US between april and may '09. Here in Brasil I don't have much trouble
with hand inspection of my films - only lost six unexposed rolls so
far, in a single event.
But I wonder if this is still possible in the US - my latest
experience there came fairly ok in may, '01. Still have a small film
shield, but lately I just carry my 6pack of Fuji as I walk under the
metal detector and ask it to be hand checked.
I can travel without film if needed, but would rather have some with
me all the time. Still remember the most suspicious way some security
party regarded my gossen lightmeter once...
