Key Travel Tips
Following these tips will help you reduce your wait time at the security
checkpoint.
Before the Airport
-
Do not pack or bring Prohibited Items to the airport. Prohibited items are
weapons, explosives, incendiaries, and include items that are seemingly
harmless but may be used as weapons - the so-called "dual use" items. You
may not bring these items to security checkpoints without authorization.
-
Place valuables such as jewelry, cash and laptop computers in carry-on baggage only.
Tape your business card to the bottom of your laptop.
-
Avoid wearing clothing, jewelry and accessories that contain metal. Metal
items may set off the alarm on the metal detector.
-
Avoid wearing shoes that contain metal or have thick soles or heels. Many
types of footwear will require additional screening even if the metal
detector does not alarm.
-
Put all undeveloped film and cameras with film in your carry-on baggage.
Checked baggage screening equipment will damage undeveloped film.
-
Declare
firearms & ammunition
to your airline and place them in your checked baggage.
-
If you wish to lock your baggage, use a TSA-recognized lock.
-
Do not bring lighters or prohibited matches to the airport.
-
Do not pack wrapped gifts and do not bring wrapped gifts to the checkpoint.
Wrap on arrival or ship your gifts prior to your departure. TSA
may have to unwrap packages for security reasons.
