#ProhibitedItemsWeek might end with a bang, but we're sure glad this good catch didn't! At @BostonLogan, our officers found a passenger trying to speed through security with both drugs and fireworks. Remember: explosives and illegal substances shouldn't be brought to the airport.
Planning to bring a drill on your trip? Power tools like drills and bits must go in checked bags, not carry-on. These were found by our officers at @ANCairport. To avoid delays, use our "What Can I Bring" tool to check what's allowed: https://t.co/EkDxkoNY7B

Call of Duty ... Baggage Ops??? 😮
Our officers @BostonLogan found a replica explosive in checked bags. Cool in-game, not so much in real life. Replica weapons/explosives aren't allowed in carry-on or checked bags. Reach out to @AskTSA with any travel q's.

When it comes to blades in your carry-on, size DOESN’T matter because we don’t cut corners on safety. Our officers at FLO airport and @fly_CID recently found these pointy surprises. Stay sharp, but not THAT sharp. Check out more here: https://t.co/2qz9CB6EoW

Hold on to your luggage, it’s officially #ProhibitedItemsWeek! Check in with us all week long as we share some great catches by our officers, give you all the info on what NOT to pack, and drop helpful travel tips for your future trips.
#ProhibitedItemsWeek wouldn’t be complete without a reminder about firearms. While traveling with a firearm is allowed, it MUST be properly packed as checked baggage & declared to your airline.
Tip: Start with a clean bag when you pack, to ensure there are no prohibited items.
Our @TSA officers are trained to find threats hidden inside everyday objects like these knives that were inside pens or a knife inside a replica gun intercepted @flyneworleans #prohibiteditemsweek
A replica magazine, and mine walk up to a checkpoint at @BostonLogan. Sounds like the setup for a joke, right? Not quite! Replica magazines go in checked bags, and, Mr. Mine, stay home. Questions? Our "What Can I Bring Tool" can help: https://t.co/S3mtG5xIAT

This heavy part to a trailer hitch was brought to @TSA @JacksonAirports. If it can act as a bludgeon it’s a no go and part of #ProhibitedItemsWeek.
Boarding pass? ✔️ ID? ✔️ Antique gun? Hold up! That needs special attention. Before flying, pack it in a locked, hard-sided case, don't forget to declare with your airline for a smooth experience. For a complete #firearm guide visit: https://t.co/W6ZXxQT1QC

This wasn’t a step in the right direction, cane you believe someone tried sneaking this through @EWRairport? Swords are not allowed to fly. Check all items before flying, prevent any unwanted delays. Know what you can pack, check out: https://t.co/S3mtG5xIAT

As we kick off #ProhibitedItemsWeek, here’s a great reminder for those traveling with stun guns. We know how important these are to your personal security, but please make sure that they’re packed in your checked bag, and not in your carry-on, for everyone’s safety. ⬇️

It’s Friday and we’re wrapping up #ProhibitedItemsWeek. Haven’t been following along? Here's a recap:
- We’ve discovered a record number of firearms at our checkpoints. You can travel with them, in your checked bags ONLY, by following these instructions: https://t.co/W6ZXxQT1QC
We’ve seen just about everything when it comes to concealed prohibited items, but this one had us feeling not so cuddly. This was a great catch by our team at @AUStinAirport who, earlier this year, discovered ammo hidden inside of a stuffed animal. #ProhibitedItemsWeek
.#Friday @TSA officers @AUStinAirport discovered 50 rounds of ammo hidden in 🙈🙉🙊See, hear & speak no prohibited items even in a stuffed🐒 Reminder that bullets should never go in carry-on🧳& be kind to animals, even the stuffed ones.
We’re continuing #ProhibitedItemsWeek today with some of the wildest things we’ve seen at checkpoints lately – like this knife concealed inside of a traveler’s laptop. Incredible job by our officers at @Flack4RIC for finding this via x-ray screening a few months ago.
The @TSA team at Richmond International Airport detected a knife artfully concealed inside the inner workings of a traveler’s laptop. The officer spotted the unusual find via X-ray and after obtaining special tools to expose the guts of the laptop, revealed the knife.
Today’s 4/20! So, here are a few rather sticky #TBT finds. Weed like to remind everyone that your high heals remain illegal under federal law except for products that contain no more than 0.3% THC. Blunter info can be found here: https://t.co/mpDMAVe7lq #ProhibitedItemsWeek
Here’s the #ProhibitedItemsWeek lowdown on lighters: Any torch lighters you might have, aren’t allowed in your carry-on or checked bags. Same for disposable lighters. Anything with lighter fluid isn’t allowed to fly, per @FAANews guidelines.

So we had to Google what, exactly, a shillelagh is, but we know that anything that’s made with the intent to bludgeon someone else is not allowed as a carry-on item. Great job our team at @iflyBoise for finding this item last month. #ProhibitedItemsWeek
It may look like a miniature golf club, but it's not. It's a shillelagh, a Gaelic club used to "settle disputes in a gentlemanly manner." @TSA officers found it Friday in a traveler's carry-on @iflyboise. Bad idea to bring it to the checkpoint; perfect for checked baggage. 🧳
