  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • Put any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
