7. Don’t Over Pack
In order to get through the bag check line quickly, do not overstuff your bag or backpack. The security personnel are very thorough and will search every nook and cranny of your bag with a flashlight. Too many loose items will cause a delay in their search. Snacks and water bottles should be placed in a separate clear bag so they are easily visible. Buy samples of medical needs (band aids, first aid gel, aspirin, sun block, etc.) and place them in a clear zippered bag. These clear bags make it much easier for the security personnel to check your bags.
