What is not allowed in luggage when flying?

Firearms, ammunition, and fireworks are prohibited, as are all knives and safety razors (including pocket knives and Swiss Army knives). Straight razors and replacement blades for straight razors are also not allowed. Most tools also cannot be packed in carry-on luggage, as they have the potential to cause harm.


What toys are not allowed planes?

Squirt guns, Nerf guns, toy swords, or other items that resemble realistic firearms or weapons are prohibited. We recommend emptying water guns, which must follow the 3-1-1 Liquids Rule. Replicas of explosives, such as hand grenades, are prohibited in checked and carry-on baggage.


Can I take a jar of jam in hand luggage?

If your intention is to bring the jam onto the plane in your carry-on baggage and eat it during the flight, you'll have no issues. The TSA applies the same rules for allowing jam through security at U.S. airports, whether you are flying domestically or internationally.


What not to wear through airport security?

Baggy clothing can include low-hanging pants, flowy skirts, heavy sweaters or sweatshirts, and loose dresses – things that would allow malicious travelers to hide prohibited items. Airport security may need to do a pat-down inspection if your clothes are too loose and they suspect you may be hiding prohibited items.
