Pack Smart:
Please check the Transportation Security Administration’s website at tsa.gov for a list of items banned from checked bags or carry-ons. Do keep your prescription drugs, jewelry, and other valuables with you. If you store toiletries and other small items inside plastic bags, it will help prevent spillage, breakage, or loss in case your bag is searched.
