Your medications should travel with you, not in your checked bag, so you have them if you need them.
Tip: Place medical supplies & medicine in a separate bin during x-ray screening to keep the process running smoothly.

The goal this summer is to make memories, not explain what’s in your carry-on.
Pack smart. Double-check your bag *before* getting to the airport and have a fun summer vacay!

No ordinary pit stop.
14 of our K9s from 10 different cities, along with other federal and local partners helped secure the Indianapolis 500 this past weekend. The K9s would screen the cars for explosives as TSA officers filtered the cars into and out of the screening area.
