  • Avoid handing your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, place your pass on the reader and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. This will need to be taken out for X-ray scanning.
  • To minimize handling during screening, place items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
