Prohibited Items

Prohibited and Permitted with Exception Items

Safety is our number one value. When it comes to your packing list, be sure to follow all TSA guidelines and know before you go if an item is allowed on board or in a checked bag.

Prohibited items in carry-on bags

Dual-use items prohibited in carry-on bags

Prohibited items are weapons, explosives, incendiaries, and include items that are seemingly harmless but may be used as weapons (dual-use items). You may not bring these items to security checkpoints without authorization.

If you bring a prohibited item to the checkpoint, you may be criminally and/or civilly prosecuted or, at the least, asked to rid yourself of the item. A TSA screener and/or Law Enforcement Officer will make this determination, depending on what the item is and the circumstances. Bringing a prohibited item to a security checkpoint - even accidentally - is illegal.

The following list outlines items that are prohibited in your carry-on bags. This list is not intended to be all-inclusive and is updated as necessary. To ensure everyone's security, the screener may determine an item not listed is prohibited.

Permitted items

Information on the 3-1-1 Directive

3-1-1 for carry-on bags = 3.4 oz/100 ml bottle or less; one quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; one bag per customer placed in screening bin. One quart-sized bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. The 3.4 oz/100 ml container size requirement is a security measure.

Customers are prohibited from taking liquids, gels, and/or aerosols past the airport security screening checkpoint except:

  • One clear transparent, resealable one-quart (one-liter) sized plastic bag containing liquids, gels, and aerosols in travel size containers (3.4 oz./100 ml capacity) or less per container.

  • The contents of the plastic bag must fit comfortably and the plastic bag must be completely sealed, taken out of the carry-on bag and placed in a security bin.

Please note: liquids, gels, and aerosols include beverages, shampoo, suntan lotion, creams, toothpaste, hair gel, hair spray, and other items of similar consistency.
