Checkpoint Information

The following are tips you should be aware of before entering the TSA Checkpoint.

Select the link to the Right->> 3-1-1 for carry-ons = 3 ounce bottle or less (by volume) ; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3 oz. container size is a security measure.


Select the link to the Right->> Consolidate bottles into one bag and X-ray separately to speed screening.


Select the link to the Right->> Be prepared. Each time TSA searches a carry-on it slows down the line. Practicing 3-1-1 will ensure a faster and easier checkpoint experience.


Select the link to the Right->> 3-1-1 is for short trips. If in doubt, put your liquids in checked luggage.


Select the link to the Right->> Declare larger liquids. Medications, baby formula and food, breast milk, and juice are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint.


Select the link to the Right->> Come early and be patient. Heavy travel volumes and the enhanced security process may mean longer lines at security checkpoints.
