  • Before you lock in a flight, see if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking official government websites.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may be denied entry or boarding.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, you should place the pass on the reader and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be taken out for X-ray scanning.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • If you're taking food on board, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
