My biggest pet peeve is waiting for my luggage and little kids are running around and waiting right up next to the luggage carousel area. I try to stand back and wait for mine, unlike people who crowd right up next to it so none of us can see the luggage coming out and when it comes around , little kids are just hanging out right up next to the carousel and I cant get to my luggage. Little kids can’t pull off their luggage and they’re just getting in the way. Get your luggage, hang back, WITH YOUR KIDS, and wait for your next piece of luggage!

I have a family member who is a TSA agent. She says if the dogs are out sniffing, it is highly unlikely you will have to take anything out of your bag. They will alert their handlers if they detect something that warrants further inspection.

@gigi9301 5 месяцев назад

Great tips thank you! I could have reallly used the TSA cares progam when I recently went through JFK in New York it was an incredibly stressful situation all around and I was in tears after going through TSA precheck it seemed everyone was shouting and so rude; I was also patted down for some change I forgot in my pocket. It was early in the morning so all the airline workers were passing us to go through screening first and the line seemed to take forever. I was overwhelmed and really had to work hard to keep myself together and avoid a panic attack. I fly a lot internationally, but it was at the end of a long trip (third leg) and was not expecting the long line at immigration and the rudeness of the workers to me was just the last straw, even though it might just have been the "new york attitude".

@leeannkleine6120 6 месяцев назад

When I pack my water bottle for security, I have the bottle on 1 side of my personal item bag and the lid on the other. This way, the agent can see before it goes into the machine that it's empty. I have also noticed that many airports are now posting signs statting to NOT stack the bins up at the end of the conveyor. If I see that, I will follow that posted instruction instead of automatically stacking. I think those airports are on a timed conveyor, but I'm not positive. Botton line is to be considerate of others when you travel, not just of yourself.

@GenxGypsy1968 6 месяцев назад

That's a great tip about packing lid and bottle separately!! And yes, the best course of action is to be aware of instructions, because more often than not they are going to be different from airport to airport 😊

@vickiejordan8037 15 дней назад

Before getting into the security line, I find a bench to sit down and remove my shoes, being older it’s tennis shoes (leaving my socks on), so I’m when I get there I’m ready. After going through the line I gather all my items in the bins and find I spot, out of the way, to change socks, put my shoes on and rearrange anything in my carry on so I can walk through the airport without having any issues.

I wish it were true that there were tables and benches to repack after going through TSA. 🤦‍♀️ LAX, FAT, DFW, BOS…not a one and to remove the bin and put it on the only option (the floor!) away from the conveyor belt so as to not hold up the line was a big No-No in 2 of those airports. This resulted in being shouted at and scolded. Yup, I get it, they are just doing a job and are busy and we did stay polite but wow, what a horrible ordeal. We did reach out to TSA Cares after the fact: they listened, and ‘kind of’ apologized, and said they would look into it .😒 It is what it is.

I thought I was crazy... There isn't any such thing in Denver either, just benches a little ways away to put your shoes back on.

I am 62 and have TSA pre-check. I travel often domestically and have never gotten the dreaded SSSS. However, 8 times out of 10, I, (not my luggage), get pulled for additional screening. I follow all of the rules, say please and thank you, am dressed for business, and I still get pulled. It truly causes a great deal of anxiety and embarrassment because they never tell you why you have been pulled.

Inconsistencies in TSA checkpoints! Departure TSA allowed my portable "BLENDJET" blender. Its a blender! It has blender blades. They are inside a blender bottle with a lid. The whole thing was inside a zipped insulated case. PERMITTED after exam by TSA agent. RETURN trip... TSA pulled it to examine it. Agent decided it was NOT approved. She said i could leave it or go check it and go back through . OR mail it for $29. I mailed it. She was RUDE. I told her it was ok'd before but she wouldn't hear it. "Don't bring it! Use a blender bottle with a ball" duh.. it's for frozen drinks. I'll just have to CHECK it in the future!

I wish there was some consistency. I just went Tampa -> London Gatwick and then London Gatwick -> Tampa with no precheck and there was such a difference what they wanted, on the way they said shoes off but liquids could stay in bag but they only said that when we were actually at the bin stage, and there was a body scanner. On the way back shoes stayed on, liquids out, no scanner (I was through security in less than 2 mins).

@eru6ite 6 месяцев назад

Nice video, I love your content. 👍 By the way, there is no such thing as a "TSA-approved" liquids bag. The TSA don't have any approval or certification process they go through. A liquids bag might be considered TSA "compliant" but it cannot be referred to as "approved". P.S. Your liquids bag doesn't comply because it is way too big for a quart. 🙂

@MaryLong 3 месяца назад

I feel like every time I fly out of Philly, I get flagged for extra screening. With an IUD, I get the extra pad down. The first few times this happened I forgot WHY I was flagged. Now I remember. I once requested a private room when apparently failing a screening and pat down. No one came up for that so I let them do the 2nd pat down it right there. THEN they wiped my hands which I failed. They let me go anyway. The only thing I can think of was there was something on the door on the bathroom I used at the main entrance or it was my hair gel. I stay calm when these pat downs happen which I think flags me more because I am not agitated or annoyed.

I had to pull out my kindle for the Milwalkee airport. Usually I have all electronics in one bag and of course this time I didn’t and my bag was pulled.

@cjnkmw6351 Месяц назад

The last few times I’ve flown with my electronics, I’ve been asked to pull them out of if I have them all packed together, as in layered or stacked with each other in the same pocket or right next to each other. If i separate them - laptop in back pocket, kindle in front pocket, iPad in middle pocket of my backpack - I’m less likely to be asked to take them out. I have TSA pre check and global entry now, but the way you pack electronics is key, as my electronics were pulled out in Anchorage. I realized it’s because they were all mashed together instead of separated in my bag.

The person scanning carry-ons for TSA was concerned when my bag containing chargers for my husband and my phones and iPad were in one bag. She said that the number of wires in one carry-on looked like a device when seen by the scanner. Another TSA employee opened the bag after the scan, and lectured me on not packing so many wires (three wires less than a yard each) in one bag.

@myridean2k4 6 месяцев назад

If you do happen to find when you check in online that you do have the "SSSS" on your boarding pass, is it alright to go straight to TSA/CATSA agent and show them that you have SSSS as you'll need to be escorted to be pulled aside anyway into a separate area WITHOUT HAVING TO WAIT in line first to enter the scanner? They'll be giving you a pat down, asking questions and for you to open your luggage which sort of defeats the purpose of going through the scanner. I know they used to give passengers the option years ago to be asked for a pat down instead of going through the scanner.

@GenxGypsy1968 6 месяцев назад

I think it will very much depend on the airport. If I were to get the SSSS I would definitely ask the TSA agent who scans your ID or boarding pass what you should do. You might also ask the airline agent who checks you in if they know the right procedure that perhaps will save the unnecessary step of waiting in line just to get pulled out. Great question!!

@Honest_Mom 2 месяца назад

If you’re designated a SSSS passenger, you shouldn’t be able to get an online boarding pass. The airline’s website should refer you to a ticket agent for a boarding pass.

Dog or cat? Do as much research as you can in advance, for your airline. Each airline will have slightly different “rules,” and it’s up to you to know what they are. I flew with my son’s cat a few years ago. Make sure your airline allows in cabin pets, and if they do, make your reservation as far in advance as possible (there are limits to how many pets can fly on any particular plane). Be sure your pet’s carrier is the right size. Check out the airports you will be flying through - many of them now have “doggy relief” areas (but carry baggies and wipes, just in case🥰). Check to see if you need special paperwork for your pet, such as a health certificate or proof of vaccinations. Etc, etc, etc. With my son’s cat, I asked for a “private screening” so I didn’t have to take him out of the carrier for security (they took me to an enclosed room to take him out, then they scanned the carrier separately). I only did that because cats can be an escape risk, but it might not be necessary for a pup. Take a deep breath - you will be fine. Oh, and check with your vet before you give any medications.

Mistake # 17 I disagree with. Last time I was there at security I had to find my glasses, which they had lost and get my hearing aids and put on my belt and shoes and repack my stuff .... If I had moved to some bench ? if there is such a thing, then I lose track of things that are vitally important. As for people being rude. Being rude is not a crime. Fondling travelers genitals because they cannot go through the x-rays is illegal and the goons do that in order to gratify their sense of entitlement and/or to humiliate you. Behaving in a very rude manner is a natural consequence of being degraded by demented goons who behave in ways that are way beyond rude or irritating, they are violence-provoking. And people are degraded by these thugs and the unnecessary stress they put on people so it is a natural reaction to behave in less than the mannerly ways we have been taught. What has to happen sometime - before travelers start rioting and smashing the airlines' equipment and fighting with the armed guards who should not be there - is that the authorities recognize they cannot go on degrading people like this and they get rid of the most egregious of the pigs that presently work in airport security and make the regulations more sane and sensible and appropriate also consistent and teach the hired moron thugs what the regulations are and make them enforce the rules consistently everywhere and not threaten to treat common people like criminals. And not punish people for making mistakes or being rude.

I'll probably get another "S" for posting here, but I don't see much effort going into the root of the problem...

While I am listening to rules about airport security and how to behave or what to answer, I do not know how it is possible I never even paid attention to such details. I flew a lot for my work for 25 to 30 years. I was young and everything was just fun. I lived in 4 different European countries. I flew or took a train from country to country and flew across the Atlantic several times both for work and on holidays. Earlier here in Europe, we used to have both passport controls and security. Now that we are members of the European Union, passports are often not required at all. You just walk through. Only once, upon arrival to New York, the passport control officer got upset seeing me wave my hand to a friend, who was standing further down a corridor behind him. This friend worked at the airport and thought it was a polite idea to welcome me. The officer gave me a lecture about listening and luckily let me go. There seems to be a slight difference in how a person gets treated by passport officers. This is my own opinion. Showing a passport of a neutral and stable Scandinavian country does not make alarm bells ring. These days the world is a more dangerous place and the more security we have, the better it is.

... but they seem to target gentle, compliant people and give the aggressors a pass. I have been flagged, Xrayed, groped, etc., ever since I gave the JTTF the benefit of my research on terrorists, mostly from the psychological point of view. They thanked me by putting me on the 4S list and playing stupid games like offering a coca cola so they could get my prints on the can...Puerile games! I totally over estimated them... they didn't appear to know the difference between an illegal alien and an organised terrorist cell. Or perhaps they did not want to know. The last "silly game" was at Newark...first a very sweet young TSA agent said "it's a random check..." and I laughed and said, "not the sixth time in a row..." She smiled sheepishly...however at the grope and grab and irradiate area, I went through the "sterility" machine and the aggressive female at the other side showed me an Xray with what appeared to be a colostomy bag and said it was mine...and I said no flaming way...but she got her "jollies" with the oul' grab and grope and I left harassment USA... Not holding my breath for an apology or "congressional medal of honor" or anything...but is this security or social conditioning?

@GenxGypsy1968 6 месяцев назад

This is a great question... and I don't really have a great answer. I personally almost never carry my meds in their containers because I already have them divided out in my daily pill case. But, I know there are some countries that are super strict about certain drugs, like HRT and anxiety prescriptions. I think its one of those things where you just need to do the research, and if it looks like it could cause a problem, make sure to bring the containers. Sorry for the non-answer!!😊

I see lots of people who put fragile stickers on their checked in luggage. The stickers themselves are fine. However, I would still absolutely make sure anything that is fragile is very well packed and secure as the stickers are no guarantee your bags will be handled gently, unfortunately.
