  • Keep your face mask on even during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
  • To reduce the potential of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for X-ray screening.
  • Put any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
