My ex-husband had a TSA agent break off the nail file on his nail clippers! Then the TSA agent gave it back to him to put back in his carry on. It left a jagged edge that was more dangerous than the dull 2 inch nail file. LOL
Was flying out of LAX, woman behind me checked her ID and Passport in her luggage, she had planned to travel internationally. Even I said, WTF were you thinking?
That happened to me once except it wasnt at the airport it was boarding a cruise ship. I (stupidly) put my passport in the front pocket of my suitcase and asked my mom to watch it while i went and met the rest of our family. When i came back my mom had checked the luggage in. 😑 Lesson learned. NEVER EVER put your passport in your luggage. ALWAYS keep it on you at all times. I was lucky and they were able to track down my bag and get it but trust me it was a stressful few hours. Would not recommend. Also quadruple check before leaving the house, hotel, wherever your staying that you have everything.
You can bring razors, as long as the blade is hidden (in the plastic). You can't bring a open-bladed razor in your carry-on. Also: If you want a small snack you can take these smashed-fruit-smoothie-things that you can get in the kids section. They usually fit the measurements of 3oz or less :)
One correction to what she said... Spare lithium ion battries MUST be in your carry on bag. It's allowed (but not smart) to to have your tech that has l-ion batteries in checked luggage, but spare camera batteries and the like are not allowed in checked luggage.
Love and London do you know the rules with regards to prescription meds that are in gel form? If you are worried about airlines losing checked bags and you can't afford to lose your meds?
You are lucky because the fine can be as high as $1000.00 for bringing fruits, vegetables or meats into another country and you have to pay that before you leave the airport. Also if the flight has fruits as part of the inflight meal don't take it off the aircraft.
According to Australian regulations, it is permissible now to carry knitting needles in carry on luggage, since the amendment in 2010. But on the safe side, it's usually in checked luggage and wedged with a consignment of yarns. Crochet hooks too, but they too head through checked luggage. Besides, ever tried to knit a scarf in economy class in a crowded flight? GAAAH! Also, true story: sealed cans of soft drinks from the plane can pass through security and biosecurity on arrival; it happened to me as I forgot about a sealed lemonade can in me carry on.
You can bring a disposable razor, but not a detachable blade type. TSA rules are Federal across the board no matter which airport you go to. All ports must comply to the same TSA rules.
just thought I'd add that the reason you can take lithium ion batteries that are in your devices, i.e. laptop are because of HAZMAT shipping laws. Specifically a lithium ion battery can be stored within that specific equipment item usually as long as it's an enclosed device. It's actually illegal to travel with your battery out.

Just left Vegas last weekend and watched as they pulled out a traveler and told them that they had to throw away their shave cream. They argued that the TSP in Louisiana had no problem with it. But I left and the Vegas TSA were standing their ground not letting them leave the area.
I don’t know about you guys in the States, but flying in the EU you’re allowed to have a single normal lighter on you if you smoke (and no it doesn’t have to have the liquid drained). This should be on your person or carryon though.
from Germany to Philippines and back, bringing of fruits is allowed for consumption portion or size only....like 3 kilos mangoes, or 1 kilo fresh cherries, berries, or a whole small fruit jackfruit is acceptable.
Good channel! I just want to say that even small nail scissors (not cutters, scissors) can be taken from you. This has happened to me twice. Strictness of the tsa depends on the agent, airport and country when it comes to the details. Also some places might take a razor if the blades are detachable, which includes the expensive venus-brand ones etc. So be on the safe side and don't bring these at all or at least not your finest ones.
You can bring a lighter on a plane it just has to go through security separately when you go through security and empty your pockets. My uncle smoked for 40 years and all he had to do is take his Bic lighter out of his pockets and put it in one of those little bowls. The other thing is if you buy those clear little containers in the Travel section at a department store then the bottles have to be labeled with what's in them
If you want to bring a reusable water bottle, dump it out the night before. Make sure that there are no water stuck in the straw and the bite valve that some water bottles have such as Camelbak eddy water bottles. Once you got all of the water out, leave the water bottle in a place where it won't be forgotten overnight to let the remaining water droplets dry out. If you need a drink before you go off to the airport, just drink a glass of water until it's time to go. Once you passed security, you can refill your water bottle at the water fountain or wait until you get on the plane and ask if they can fill up your water bottle with water.
Would baby wipes/makeup remover wipes need to be in a tsa bag? Or can those with my “makeup bag” along with my brushes? Does the makeup bag need to be clear as well?
I flew all the way from Alberta, Canada to Uruguay, South America with a box or two of razor blades (for shaving). I stopped in Brazil and Chile too. On the way home I spent a couple of days in Mexico City and when trying to get through security on my way home they X-rayed my carry-on bag 3-5 times before confiscating my razors!
I put a bottle of Scotch in my carry on to avoid the overweight charge for my checked bag in Germany (I'm so stupid). I got to their version of TSA and was told "This is not permitted" DUH! I was NOT gonna pour out the whisky so I checked my carryon for $100 euro.
If u r flying domestic in a carry on I don’t think that your liquids have to be in a clear bag. I’ve flown from New Jersey to Florida and back many times with only using a carry on. They have always been in an orange bag. But if u are flying abroad then definitely use the clear bag
Are those toiletry bags a must when you have a carry on bag or a checked bag? Do you know if we can have 3 bottles for example that each one is around 80ml and does not exceed the 100ml size? Thanks!
JBoulos42 Yes you can. But I recommend that you have it in a carry on. Also have fun on your trip!!!‼‼‼‼‼ Edit: You should keep it as a carry on because it is more likely to break if it's in a checked bag.
Also, you can have an unlimited amount of lithium ion batteries, as long as they are under 100 kWh. With batteries 100-160 I believe you can have a total of three of those. I have a bigger portable battery pack (basically off-brand Mophie), its 111 kWh. So, I've made sure that I can fly with it before I bought it.
Is sunscreen ok when put in checked bag? I have a bottle of sunscreen but it's lotion not the spray type, only 20ml. I'd apply on my skin before the flight cause I'm afraid if I put it in my carry on bag they'll take it away.
im going backpacking in amsterdam this summer. Could i bring food in a carry on? (souvenirs: biscuits, choocolate, frozen food?) Or must i check it in?
Hello I was wondering if you can carry brand new electronics like a brand new iPad in the box in your carry on? If you could please answer me that will be fantastic I REALLY need to know. Thank you
If you're not really into liquids or not planning on bringing any liquids in your carry on, can you bring lip gloss(es) without putting them in a clear bag?
Ok so, i'm going to be traveling with Air france. I have not been travelling before so im unsure about this; It says hand baggage must not be over 55cm. Do they mean the baggage that you take with you on the plane or the one that gets checked in?
Okay so, if you have liquids that ARE 3.4 ounces, they don't have to be in a quart sized bag? only liquids that are under need to be in a quart sized bag?
You know the 100ml liquid rule, does it refer to all liquids as a whole to be under 100ml so should they kind of add up to 100ml or is it referring to every seperate liquid product to be under 100ml??
can you put a shoe box inside of your luggage with clothes in it?? if you bought a pair of shoes international and not get reimburse for tax. will it be an issue with security?? going back to USA.. thank you!!
Helpful video! Two questions for you...#1 My liquid foundation does not come in see through bottle. Do I need to transfer it into a clear bottle? #2 I am planning on packing taking sandwiches which will have meat & vegetables on them. Will this be allowed through security but must be eaten before departing the plane? Please clarify so that I understand correctly. Thanks :)
about razor blades for my double edge razor depends on TSA take your chances the only way it got through was to leave the blade in the razor 1 blade i don't think the girl knew how to open the butterfly double edge razor
My ex-husband had a TSA agent break off the nail file on his nail clippers! Then the TSA agent gave it back to him to put back in his carry on. It left a jagged edge that was more dangerous than the dull 2 inch nail file. LOL

Good tip!
MsHydrolove thanks ❤
PSh, Mine was covered, those people still threw it out. It was also just the brow kind with the metal nets blocking the blades
Could you bring the Venus Gillette Snap razor?
Can i bring hair clipper?
One correction to what she said...
Spare lithium ion battries MUST be in your carry on bag. It's allowed (but not smart) to to have your tech that has l-ion batteries in checked luggage, but spare camera batteries and the like are not allowed in checked luggage.
I think each airline and country has different rules for those types of batteries so as I say with everything else, check it yourself too :D
Love and London do you know the rules with regards to prescription meds that are in gel form? If you are worried about airlines losing checked bags and you can't afford to lose your meds?
Sz Ki no restrictions on cream, gel prescription medications
Sz Ki carry a copy of your prescription AND a Letter from your doctor. I’ve not had trouble if I have both of those things.
You can definitely take a lighter with fluid on a plane. I've never had one confiscated.
U can but u have to put it in a plastic bag
can't
Yes, you’re correct. You can bring a Bic lighter onto carry on.
We bought a bunch of exotic fruits once, then we tried eating it all because the TSA wouldn't let the fruit on XDDDDD
:D
Yeah,, when we went to vietnam we tried to bring back fish sauce we weren't allowed to bring it home because they're scared of like diseases :(
BaggiesofSwaggiesGaming
hahahahhaha. lolololol
dallon weekes makes me dallon weak
ship it next time. when you arrive home, you'll have a fresh jar of fish sauce waiting for u in your P.O. box

Some airports don't allow tiny razors or knives no matter how small. Basically it depends on the airport. Phoenix airport is very strict

Unfortunately it depends on the will of the TSA agents even if you follow every rule 😞
Only if they think something is unsafe!
I love how many travel advice videos you have on your channel! glad i stumbled upon it x
Welcome to the community Rosalie :)
Rosalie Edith that’s my name lol x
I was reminded of the ‘I Love Lucy’ episode where she tried to smuggle a huge sausage home from Europe.
Hahahha I don't think I've seen that one!

🤣🤣🤣🤣 not sausage! It was cheese.
I’m taking my 1st ever flight to Orlando soon!
Just left Vegas last weekend and watched as they pulled out a traveler and told them that they had to throw away their shave cream. They argued that the TSP in Louisiana had no problem with it. But I left and the Vegas TSA were standing their ground not letting them leave the area.
Good-- gotta keep people safe!
I don’t know about you guys in the States, but flying in the EU you’re allowed to have a single normal lighter on you if you smoke (and no it doesn’t have to have the liquid drained). This should be on your person or carryon though.
Lmaoo whats the point in bringing a lighter if u cant have fluid in it....
I
If its refillable like a zippo
Actually, you can take 1 pack of matches or a Bic lighter. Don't Bring other brand lighters or they will be confiscated.
Ive been flying with lighters and no problems
Some people have lighters that don't suck.
from Germany to Philippines and back, bringing of fruits is allowed for consumption portion or size only....like 3 kilos mangoes, or 1 kilo fresh cherries, berries, or a whole small fruit jackfruit is acceptable.

Shaving cream IS considered aerosol to some guards. Last time I flew, I got mine taken away at TSA
Interesting!
Orlando Torres my dad always brings it...
nothing happens...you can bring it
Orlando Torres its not really an "aerosol"????
Maybe it was over the 100 ml?
Use conditioner instead

My husband had nail scissors confiscated from his very expensive nail set. The clippers were fine. This happened in Australia.
I've vrought back a lot of food from Mexico to the US and nothing has ever been "argued" about that thing by TSA, or the Aduana, or customs.
First time flying next week. Super helpful 👍
Have a great trip!
I put a bottle of Scotch in my carry on to avoid the overweight charge for my checked bag in Germany (I'm so stupid). I got to their version of TSA and was told "This is not permitted" DUH! I was NOT gonna pour out the whisky so I checked my carryon for $100 euro.
Our flight attendant got charged 400€ for a banana that she forgot was in her bag when we arrived in Germany. Oops.
Oh dear!
