U.S. PACKING GUIDELINES

All bags are subject to search. Bags that set off alarms or otherwise raise security concerns will have to be opened for inspection. The TSA is moving toward providing travelers with free, tamper-evident seals that screeners can snip open if a search is necessary. But for now, air travelers are advised to secure their luggage with cable or zip ties as an alternative to using baggage locks.

 

If a checked bag is searched, a "Notification of Baggage Inspection," which says the TSA is not liable for damage, will be put inside the bag. Screeners will then reseal the bag for the rest of the trip.

 

Do not pack food or beverages -- which tend to set off alarms -- in checked bags.

To make searches easier, don’t over pack, and put footwear on top of other contents. Place personal belongings in clear plastic bags to reduce chances of a TSA screener having to handle them.

Don’t stack books in luggage. Instead, spread them out. 

Passengers are also warned against putting film in checked bags, because screening equipment will damage it.

Remember to leave gifts unwrapped should screening require them to be opened. Put scissors, pocket knives and other sharp items in checked bags, never in carry-on.
