WE have never flown before. Can my dd wear her Disney pins or should we put it in our checked luggage?
Put them in your luggage. Although they aren't very long they can refuse you boarding. Better safe than sorry.
NO! NO! NO! DO NOT put your pins in your checked bags. Please carry them on in your hand luggage. It wouldn't be a bad idea, however, to take them out of your hand luggage to run them through the x-ray machine separately.
I have NO idea what the PP means by "they can refuse you boarding"
I work for TSA

No. The TSA has no issues with the pins. And they should NOT be put into checked luggage. There is too big a chance of your luggage getting lost or having them stolen out of your checked bag.
Put them in your carry-on luggage. We NEVER put pins in checked luggage.
Are you serious? Do you think people are somewhere inside the airport rummaging through luggage looking to steal Disney pins?
Interesting.... My daughter who was 6 during our last flight, had a little guardian angel on her shirt. The angle is an inch and a half and has the same push pin on the back that most of the trading pins have. Not only did they tell us to take it off BUT they also told us we could not put it into our carry on luggage. Thankfully in LGA security opens to the front of the airport and my mom who dropped us off was still there, and I handed it to her. Or they would have made me leave it with them.
SO I will say again, I would put them in your luggage. My daughter was stopped for 1 pin. I dont know the rules as I dont work for the airlines or the TSA, but I know from personal experience.
did anyone who had them in the carry on have them taken out and inspected?
We were coming back from a funeral and had a bust of Abraham Lincon in our carry on. Security saw it on the screen and then took it out and did a bunch of testing on it.
Drugs have been hidden in things like this; probably why this got some extra attention.
