Airport Security Tips by:Steve Robinson
Share: If you want to make your passage through airport security checkpoints as easy as
your purchase of cheap airplane tickets and discount hotel rooms, then you should be ready to follow the Transportation Security Administration's current security checkpoint policies:
- Carry a government issued picture ID such as a passport, driver's license, or military ID.
- Have your boarding pass out prior to approaching a security checkpoint.
- If you have any large liquid containers, place them in sealable plastic bags (ideally packed in bubble wrap) in your checked bags, not in your carry-on bag. Only liquids in 3.4 oz bottles placed in clear plastic zip top bags are allowed through security checkpoints for carry-on. Each passenger is only allowed one such bag.
- Remove all loose items in your pockets, including coins, wallets, keys, and phones and place them in a container to go through X-ray at the security checkpoint. It might be easier to simply place everything in your carry-on until you pass through security.
- Wear slip on shoes.
- Take laptops and other electronics out of your carry-on for separate screening.
- You are allowed to place coats and/or jackets in a bin as it goes through the X-ray machine, but you will save time by placing them in your carry-on or in your checked bag.
- Avoid trying to pass through security with hazardous items such as knives, ski poles, bats, hockey sticks and most tools. Such items should be packed in your checked luggage.
- Fireworks and flammable paints are banned from both carry on and checked bags.
- Be pleasant and patient when waiting to go through security. Do not joke about bombs, threaten a security agent, or get physical with a screener.
