How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Santa Cruz

  • Security personnel will ask to see your boarding pass and travel ID at the checkpoint. Tuck them away in an accessible place, so they're all ready for inspection.
  • Take off your jewellery, belt and shoes before approaching security. Items like these are not allowed to pass through the body scanner.
  • Laptops, digital cameras and other electronic devices must be placed in a tub to be X-rayed.
  • Toothpaste, deodorant and other toiletry items in cream, liquid or gel form need to be stored in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They also need to fit in a 1-quart (1-liter) clear resealable bag.
  • Untie your shoelaces as you approach the body scanner. Depending on what sort of shoes you're wearing, security may instruct you to take them off.
  • Some destinations have strict biosecurity laws. Consider where you're headed to and whether or not you're permitted to travel with unpackaged foods.
