Carry On Bags

I

As nice as the gal at security was,

DeeDee had to throw away most of the stuff you see in the photo!!

Make sure this doesn't happen to you!!

Here is a link if you want more details on what is allowed,

but I'll try to give a "quick" summary :)

http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm

Common sense stuff still can't come with- knives,scissors, etc.
Each person is allowed

ONE quart size, zip-top, clear plastic bag and all of your liquids must fit in here

as you're going through security.
All of those liquids must be in bottles labeled 3oz. or less.
This means if you have a bottle of lotion that is labeled 4oz., but it clearly is only 1/2 full, they will make you throw it in the garbage, so watch your labels!
This includes gels- hair gel, toothpaste, etc.

Prescriptions in their original bottles
are allowed, they don't need to fit in your baggie.

Don't bring bottles of water, juice, or pop with to the airport, you can't get them past security.
(empty water bottles are fine)
Once you're through security you can buy all of the beverages you need and they are fine to come on the plane with you.

Remember, you get one carry on bag that is under 35 pounds

and on personal item... You can not bring two 35 pound bags.
