Permitted and Prohibited Items During Flight
The TSA continually updates its official list of items that you can (and cannot) take with you on flights originating within the United States, whether in checked luggage or in carry-on bags. (For the most current list, visit www.tsa.gov.) If you are taking a flight originating outside the United States, check with your travel agent or the airline for the applicable rules. If TSA screeners discover a prohibited item in your bags, they will ask you to get rid of the item immediately by placing it in checked baggage, leaving the security checkpoint with the item, taking the item to your car, or throwing the item away (without any hope of recovering it). In severe cases, such as firearms and explosives, you may actually be detained or arrested, even if you brought the item with you accidentally. Before you pack, be sure to check the list on the following pages. It can be used as a guideline for your travel preparation.
