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 k, thanks

From Ghostface to Pooh, it’s boo-rrific with us if you’d like to put on your costumes *after* security! Place any Halloween replica weapons in your checked bags but leave anything resembling an explosive at home. We’d prefer to keep the screams & “oh, bother” to a minimum.

It’s TIME! All Hallows’ Eve is nearing. We promise all treats and no tricks with our Halloween travel tips this week… mwahaha

You can’t pet the dogs… but you CAN be a doggy decoy! YAAAAAY! Find an airport near you: www.tsa.gov/canine-decoy...

We don’t care if you bring a whole rotisserie chicken or even the full family size 11 herbs & spices bucket… but please check with your airline before bringing your actively clucking feathered lawn dinosaur.

Foiled again, this time by our officers at San Diego Airport… Let’s just say it’s NEVER a sharp idea to hide or even pack a knife of any size in your carry-on. If you’ve got any tin foil travel theories that need to be checked, text our team at AskTSA (275-872).

TSA: We’ve never seen this much candy corn in a single bag… Passenger: And yet, here we are. TSA: … Carry-on.

K9 Bolt-y and all his pals sure are extra-boopable. Please don’t feed, pet, or startle our working K9s. Thank you!

Linda has two toothpaste tubes: one is 3.4 oz. and the other is 8.9 oz. Since 8.9 > 3.4, which one goes in the carry-on? Which one gets checked? Bonus: How many 3.4 oz. or smaller toothpaste tubes can fit in one quart-sized bag? Don't forget to show your work.

We’ve got no beef with your stacked burgers through security.

Do you remember what you were doing 25 years ago? In the moments before the world stopped & watched as horrifying events unfolded. Today, as we share the timeline of September 11th, 2001, take a moment to reflect, share your own stories, & honor the memory of those we lost.

The day the world stood still. #NeverForget

Never Forget. Never Again. Not On Our Watch.

25 years ago, nearly 3,000 people died in the attacks on September 11th, 2001. TSA was created following this tragedy that changed our country forever. As a Nation, we vowed to Never Forget. Tomorrow, we’ll pay tribute to the lives lost & first responders that ran into the fire.

GREAT CATCH: A homemade explosive device was discovered in an OMA Airport passenger’s carry-on bag. The passenger was promptly arrested, and the Omaha Police Department took control of the explosive and removed it from the airport.

Bought an oversized stuffed teddy bear, capybara, raccoon, or red panda? Don’t be like the LAX passenger in 2016 who skipped checking their giant teddy… and left it behind. Check your airline’s size & weight rules before you fly. t.co/0FrYNBHsxU

This week we pay tribute to the 25th anniversary of September 11th, 2001. Some vividly remember, while others know only through stories. TSA will never forget. Each checkpoint, each K9, each Federal Air Marshal is here to ensure terror cannot strike our Homeland again.

what if you went to the airport & just didn’t bring *checks notes* a medieval halberd in your carry-on bag?
