  • You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Instead of handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • Empty your personal items from your pocket, such as your wallet, phone and small change, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to open your bag for inspection.
