Hi. Generally, an electric glue gun is allowed in carry-on bags. Please note however that even if an item is generally allowed, it may be subject to additional screening if it triggers an alarm during the screening process or poses other security concerns based on size or weight. The final decision rests with our checkpoint officers.

Generally, you may opt out of Advanced Imaging Technology screening in favor of a pat-down. However, you'll be required to undergo AIT screening if your boarding pass indicates that you have been selected for enhanced screening, in accordance with TSA regulations, prior to your arrival at the security checkpoint. This will occur in a very limited number of circumstances. The vast majority of passengers won't be affected.
