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.
Liquids that
do not follow TSA guidelines will be confiscated. Quick story; A couple yrs
ago my mother in law went to visit relatives for Christmas and received very
expensive perfume as a gift. Not thinking, she had it in her carry on to go
home and it was confiscated at the airport. Obviously she was very upset but
this would have been avoided if she had put it in her checked bag. Please go
to: http://www.tsa.gov/ for guidelines.
Each adult
traveler needs to keep available his/her airline boarding pass and
government-issued photo ID until exiting the security checkpoint. Due to
different airport configurations, at many airports you will be required to
display your boarding pass more than once.
Place the following
items IN
your carry-on baggage or in a plastic bag prior to entering the screening
checkpoint:
Mobile phones
Keys
Loose change
Money clips
PDA's (personal
data assistants)
Large amounts of
jewelry
Metal hair
decorations
Large belt buckles
Take your laptop and
video cameras with cassettes OUT of their cases and
place them in a bin provided at the checkpoint.
Take OFF
all outer coats, suit coats, jackets, blazers and shoes.
