Baggage Inspection

Your carry-on will be hand-checked—even if it went through the X-ray machine.

Agents may ask you to open compartments or remove electronics.

More Questions

Simple ones like: “Is this all your luggage?” or “Have you packed this bag yourself?”

Not an interrogation—just verification.

Longer Wait Time

Add 5–15 minutes to your security process.

Best to arrive extra early (at least 2 hours before domestic flights).

Good news: This screening happens before the regular checkpoint—so once you’re through, you can proceed normally.
