GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ)- TSA has presented summer safety tips and prohibited items to kick off summer travel at Austin Straubel International Airport Wednesday.
With safety being the priority, TSA spokesperson Carrie Harmon says knowing what you can and can not bring on a plane is crucial.
“The more prepared you are, the more it helps us get you through quickly and efficiently.
Among the prohibited items that are most commonly seen are knifes of any size, fireworks and large bottles containing liquids. Harmon says those who have those items are subject to a bag search.
“That not only slows you down, but it also can slow the whole line down.”
You can check out TSA’s website for a list of prohibited items, or take a picture of it and send it to TSA’s Twitter page for an immediate response.”If you have an item that you want to snap a picture of and tweet it to us @asktsa, we will respond in real time to let you know if you can bring that item in your check bag, carry on, or if you should just leave it at home.”
Harmon said people should also avoid putting firearm toys or replicas in their carry on bags.
