Airport security

Read the “3-1-1 Brochure” that I emailed to you. It gives good guidelines around what can be carried onto the plane and how to get through security.

If you have additional questions, go to www.tsa.gov.

I have had lots of questions about what can be carried onto the plane versus put in your suitcase that will be checked prior to going through security (checked bag), here is a good list I got off the TSA web site…

Not sure about what you can and can't bring through the checkpoint? (on the plane) Here's a list of liquid, aerosol and gel items that you should put in your checked bag, ship ahead, or leave at home.

• Cranberry sauce
• Cologne
• Creamy dips and spreads(cheeses, peanut butter, etc.)
• Gift baskets with food items(salsa, jams and salad dressings)
• Gravy
• Jams
• Jellies
• Lotions
• Maple syrup
• Oils and vinegars
• Perfume
• Salad dressing
• Salsa
• Sauces
• Snowglobes
• Soups

Note: You can bring pies and cakes through the security checkpoint, but please be advised that they are subject to additional screening.

Remember! – do not wrap gifts you're taking on the plane. Security officers may have to unwrap gifts if they need to take a closer look. Please ship wrapped gifts ahead of time or wait until your destination to wrap them.

* Items purchased after the security checkpoint have been pre-screened and can be taken on the plane.
