The woman with the fully fueled chainsaw was at Seattle-Tacoma airport. She was taking it to give to her children. I remember walking through SeaTac 20 years ago when it was in a display case of nutty things people had tried to bring through security. Another item not to bring are Fig Newtons. Apparently they look like explosives on the x-ray. I learned this the hard way.

Well that's a fun fact.

I was traveling with my wife through the Philippines and she had her tiny curved tip scissors and they spotted them and had her remove them and throw them out. As well I have seen signs for no nail clippers allowed in carry on baggage. In Singapore the first security check point spotted my 100ML bottle of Dior cologne and made me pull it out to show him. I am glad they are being thorough!!!

this is great reminder for all travelers. thank you for putting this up altogether. keep up the great content. ❤

I think you should have included information on Exclusions from the 3-1-1. Prescription Liquids should be packaged separately and don't count. Also, if you have medical equipment; from Diabetic supplies, to CPAP machines, to Service Animals do not count against your Carry On Limit. That said, You are responsible to notify the airline(s) a head of time of these encumbrances.

Didn’t know about the powder thing because My bag got searched because I had powdered water flavourings like Crystal Light. So I will avoid it from now on except for maybe 1 pack of electrolytes in my liquid bag.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Liquid bag? Liquids are not allowed past TSA

[@RottinAdventures]

I keep a mini multi-tool on my key ring. It's a cute souvenir I got during one of my trips years ago. Recently, I completely forgot it was on my key ring. I definitely got stopped, it got confiscated, and I felt really stupid.

[@Karen-bm3rj]

Anything with a LITHIUM battery has to go in hand luggage and not checked baggage due to potential fire in hold compartment.

[@kirramcdowell]

Lighters are allowed in carry on bags - cigarette BIC type lighters. That's it. As a smoker, I passed both Amsterdam and US security with it just fine.

Hi I'm from Australia love your channel your videos are very educational. My mum and I went to Las Vegas a few years ago and I bought my partner Booby lighter I believe it was a refillable one threw it in my backpack got to tsa security they picked my bag and put it to the side as I went threw, I heard is this your bag responding yes sir. They took me aside I was almost in tears they had scanned it and they emptied all the contents of the bag, they found the Booby lighter. They had to check to see if that sort of lighter was allowed threw AND YES IT WAS OK. My mum was laughing on the other side I'm in tears I tried to repack my bag with Please don't touch your bag yet please, they gave me back the lighter I repacked my bag. Moral to this story I'll never but another BOOBY LIGHTER FOR MY PARTNER EVER AGAIN. Tsa were very nice.🇦🇺

[@thetravelcoaches]

Thanks for sharing this experience, Tsa can be very stressful especially when they do and extra security check on your bag! Thanks for watching our videos❤️

[@bearisland55]

Lol! I once won a Teflon frying pan during a holiday white elephant gift exchange. I put it in my carry on not thinking much about it. A frying pan looks pretty bad on the TSA x-ray. They let me through, but gave me an odd look. 😊

I carry a very small baby powder and crystal light individual packs and 1 cup istant coffee. Never an issue yet. Living in the Philippines and very humid so I use baby powder in my underwear area.

[@rebeccawoods4488]

I didn’t know about powders. I was going to bring bone broth with me but I’ll take it out. Thanks for the tip!

Don't bring a wooden snake carry on in India( souvenir)😂They took it away from my friend. Still trying to figure out why! Maybe we could have scared someone with it.

[@thetravelcoaches]

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Also thanks for watching❤️

[@borg386]

So you say don't bring this or don't bring that. If you do( innocently), and they don't like like it. Do they just take it from you, can you put it in your check bag,or do they take you you in the back room and strip search you? What actually happens? Nobody ever says what actually happens,only that you can't bring it. Thanks for any answers

[@RottinAdventures]

You mentioned electric fans shouldn't be packed. I am going to Thailand in a few months. I planned on packing a couple handheld fans, as well as a little bit larger fan (still small enough to fit in my carry-on). Is this going to be a problem? I've never heard about fans, but then again I dont think I know of anyone who would travel with fans either. 😅

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Did it end up being a problem

[@dusttodust4295]

I packed a long handled flashlight 🔦 years ago before 9/11 and was pull aside by security and thoroughly investigated at Heathrow. They were smirking 😏 and giving me side 👀 thinking it was a feminine toy!

[@delfin7461]

I had sparklers in a checked bag and got stopped by the bomb sniffing dog and had to give them to security. I didn't even think about it when I packed them!! The security guard just gave me a look like she was sorry she had to take them

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Sparklers can’t go in either checked or carryon bags

Question : Do you know if RFID wallets have to be on their own or can they stay in my fanny pack/jacket pocket? Thanks!

Can you take passport through security scanner with you? I never saw anyone do it, but some vloggers say to do it. I’d like to wear a flat money belt through scanner with passport inside…

[@julietopper9523]

Most of the new passports have chips in them. They can sry off the metal detector. Also, if they put you through scanner, you are not supposed to have anything in your pockets. I actually had to go back, get another bin and put this tiny hair tie in it, and send it through the x-ray. Just asinine.

[@thetravelcoaches]

I usually put my passport in the bin with all my other items including my money belt! This was a good question, and thanks for watching❤️

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Metal itself shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve taken an empty metal reusable water bottle through before without any issue since it was empty.

What about Afro comb and magnet souvenires? I seem to have lost these traveling around Malaysia and Vietnam.

Does someone know if I can pack candy in my carry-on? I’m traveling to France and I have some Mexican candy I want my partner to try. It’s nothing out of the ordinary, just some gummies and other spicy stuff (solids, nothing liquid). Also, in case I can travel with it, how should I pack it? P.S. It’s my first flight ever, so I’m new to all this check-in, TSA procedures. Thank you in advance.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

If it’s dry then it should be okay otherwise better to put in checked bag

You can bring peanut butter and jelly, it will just be part of your liquids, or you can just make pb&j sandwiches as your snacks, that is ok. At least that is what i heard. ❤ the video

[@julietopper9523]

I had a pb&j sandwich last year, and it was taken away by TSA. They told me if they had each been in individual 3.4 ounce containers and in my liquids bag, I could have brought it and made it once past security. It's so weird. They said there was no way to know how many ounces each was without being in a labeled container.
