Airport Security Line Triggers

The following items can set off the metal detectors at airport security checkpoints. Before you arrive at the checkpoint, make sure you have removed the following items. If the item is not removable, inform the security guard.

• Jewelry, including heavy necklaces, bracelets, barrettes, rings, watches, earrings, tie pins, cuff links, and body piercings.

• Keys and loose change.

• Personal portable devices, such as cell phones and pagers.

• Jackets with metal snaps and buttons.

• Belt with belt buckles.

• Under-wire bras.

In addition, you will be asked to remove your shoes. You are, however, permitted to wear head coverings or other religious garments, though you may have to be moved to a special screening area.
