  • Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, place your pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for X-ray scanning.
  • Put any personal items (keys, wallet and phone) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • If you're taking food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
