TSA’s Travel Tips
Before you go...
• Visit www.tsa.gov for all the latest
security policies.
• Liquids, gels, and aerosols are permitted
in 3 ounce containers, placed in a 1
quart-size, clear plastic, zip-top bag, one
bag per traveler.
• Medically necessary liquids like breast
milk, baby formula, and insulin, are
permitted and must be declared to a
security officer at the checkpoint.
• Pack valuable and fragile items in
your carry-on.
• Remove all items from pockets and any
accessories, including wallets, belts,
money and keys, before going through
screening. Removing these items will
reduce the need for additional screening.
• To avoid leaving any personal items
behind, place them in carry-on bags
prior to entering the checkpoint.
• If carrying a firearm, please check with
your airline for appropriate procedures.
Three Simple Steps
to Security
• Show your government-issued ID and
boarding pass to the security officer at
the checkpoint.
• Take your 3-1-1 bag out of your carry-on
and place separately in bin. Declare all
medically necessary liquids to a security
officer at the checkpoint.
• Take laptops and other large electronics
out of their cases and place in a separate
bin for X-ray screening.
