Air travelers may soon see another change when passing through security checkpoints at airports, with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem suggesting there may be changes to current TSA restrictions on liquids in carry-on bags.
U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said priority TSA lines for families could be coming soon at Nashville International Airport.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said changes may be coming on the amount of liquids travelers can bring in their carry-on bag.
Right now, travelers can have liquids in travel-sized containers 3.4 ounces or less, placed in a one-quart resealable plastic bag. Anything else, except for medications and baby formula, must be placed in checked bags. The rules apply to liquids, aerosols, gels, creams and pastes.
Current policy allows travelers to bring liquids in 3.4-ounce containers or smaller. Those containers must go in a quart-sized bag. Anything bigger must be put in checked bags. Noem did not give details as to if or when revisions might be made. Last week, the Department of Homeland Security announced plans to end the TSA’s shoes-off policy.
