TSA

We’re here for the encore, not the surprise at the checkpoint. 🎸🎷 Musical instruments can go through security but might need additional screening. Check with your airline before flying to make sure your instrument fits the baggage size rules.

The checkpoint should not be the first time you ask yourself, “wait... can I bring this?” Send those questions over to our @AskTSA team. Preferably before you arrive at the airport.

IDK who needs to hear this, but we DO NOT send emails that say *~T$A doG pEtting eveNT>* …don’t click that!

Droning on about it… because flying a drone in a no drone zone near an airport could quite literally cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars. Where can you fly? The @FAANews has more on that here: faa.gov/uas/getting_started/…

Your choice of sandwich doesn’t matter to us. Whether it’s the Whole Enchilada, the Fixings Department, the Sandwich Situation, or the Between Two Regrets they’re all welcome through security. Whatever you stack between those slices, just make sure it’s cleared for takeoff!

Your group chat has opinions. We have answers. Before you take travel advice from your cousin’s roommate’s boyfriend who last flew in 2019, go straight to the source. DM @AskTSA for answers to your questions before heading to the airport. Less bad information. More vacation.

Unfortunately, the “no drone zone” rules DO apply to flying broomsticks so let’s keep the sky sweeper turbo twig zoom broom away from the airport.
