#TravelTip: Travelers are taking to the skies in record numbers, so plan to arrive at least 2 hours prior to your flight’s scheduled boarding time to allow enough time to park, navigate to the terminal, check luggage with the airline if needed & go through security screening.

If you own a #firearm, make sure it’s not in your carry-on. “I didn’t know it was in there” or “I forgot it was in there” are not valid reasons to have a gun at our checkpoints. Don’t be the next person to be fined almost $15k. Prepare, Pack & Declare: tsa.gov/travel/transporting-…

Even if you don't medal and make it to the podium, you might still make it to your gate on time... even if you overslept. Trust us, TSA PreCheck will make you feel like a winner. (Plus, applying online is way easier than training for the Olympics.) tsa.gov/precheck

Most body piercings don't require removal for screening. However, if a piercing does alarm our screening technology, a pat-down or removal in a reserved screening area may be required. For more information on this matter, please see: tsa.gov/travel/frequently-as…

Unruly passengers distract pilots. That behavior is unsafe and you can end up in jail, owing a hefty fine or both. Learn more about our zero-tolerance policy at faa.gov/unruly.

Scam callers are impersonating CBP employees and requesting payment or personal information from residents. Note that CBP does NOT solicit payment by phone. If you receive one of these calls, hang up and report the call to the @FTC. More about the scam: go.dhs.gov/Zq4

A failing lithium battery can cause a device to feel hot, swell, smoke and even catch on fire. On your next flight – if you SEE it, HEAR it, or SMELL it, say something to your cabin crew right away. Listen to our podcast to learn more at bit.ly/45zKO1K. #PackSafe
