Summer travel season is upon us, and no one wants to be delayed by long airport security lines. Thursday, the TSA reminded passengers to think before they arrive at the security checkpoint. GusoffTV reports.

There's packing, and then there's this kind of packing: Bringing a firearm through airport security can get you arrested. "A lot of knives, oversized scissors, tools that cannot go," TSA Supervisor Nieves Ortiz said."Replicas of firearms definitely not allowed." TSA officials confiscate thousands of items every month at John F. Kennedy International Airport alone, including valuable tools - even pool cues.

"It looks like a credit card to a lot of other people, but when we check wallets we find a lot of these. When we check bracelets, we pull them out and there's a knife in between them," TSA Agent DeVaughn Edwards said. "The carbon fiber ones, knives, they're very interesting. They're very sharp, though. Please, you cannot travel with these items," Essig said."Put it in your checked bag, wrap it up. Put some bubble tape around it."TSA: Man tried to smuggle disassembled gun in peanut butter

Travel is back to 2019 levels. TSA officials ask - please help them keep the lines moving. Start with an empty bag, and know what you're packing. It could be pricey mistake for passengers. They do not get their confiscated items back. Much of it is sold by individual states as government surplus.
