  • All laptops must be taken out of their carry bags and placed in a tray before being X-rayed.
  • Lip balm, toothpaste and other toiletry items in gel, liquid or cream form need to be stored in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also fit in a 1-quart (1-liter) clear resealable bag.
  • Undo your shoelaces before entering the body scanner. Depending on the sort of shoes you've got on, security may instruct you to remove them.
  • Some destinations have strict quarantine laws. Consider where you're off to and whether or not you're allowed to fly with fresh fruit and meat.
