How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Tahoe City
Your trip to Tahoe City begins the minute you’ve completed the security checks. We’ve summarized a few handy tips to help you get through quickly:

  • Make sure you know the whereabouts of your passport and boarding pass. You don’t want to hold up the line when you’re asked to hand them over.
  • You’ll have to put your tunes on pause for a short while. Headphones need to be taken off and put in a tray to be X-rayed. The same goes for items such as coins and keys.
  • Laptops and other electronic devices must be placed in a bin to be X-rayed.
  • When you get to the security checkpoint, you’ll be asked to put all gels, liquids and creams in a separate tray for scanning. Make sure they’re all packed in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Give some thought to your choice of footwear. Slippers are great because they’re a piece of cake to step out of for the airport security checks. Try wearing some on your next journey!
  • Put any pocketknives or other pointy metal items in your checked luggage. Airport security won’t allow these on the aircraft.
