Passenger Check Point

• Place keys, change and other metal objects in your carry-on
• Remove laptop computers from their carrying case
• Outer garments and footwear must be removed and sent through the x-ray machine
• 3-1-1 for carry-on liquid = 3.4 ounce (100ml) bottle or less (by volume) ; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3.4 ounce (100ml) container size is a security measure.

  Declare larger liquids. Medications, baby formula and food, and breast milk are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint. For more information on the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) requirements for carry on liquid, please visit the TSA's 3-1-1 information page on their website.
