Airport security check point tips

The holiday travel season is a busy time.  Airports are crowded and lines are long. TSA has created a list that details what to do to make your security check in smooth and efficient.

Pack an organized carry-on bag using layers – a layer of clothes, then electronic, more clothes, and then any heavier items. This will help security officers see what’s in your bag.

Have your boarding pass and ID ready for inspection when you get to the checkpoint.

Remove your coat and shoes and place them in a bin.

Place any oversized electronics (laptops, full-size video game consoles, DVD players and video cameras that use cassettes) in a separate bin. iPods and other smaller electronics can stay in your carry-on bag.

Follow the 3-1-1 rule for liquids and put your one quart baggie separately in the bin.

When in doubt, leave it out. If you’re not sure about whether you can bring an item through the checkpoint, put it in your checked bag or leave it at home. Click here to see the list of prohibited items.
