sperkins+FollowTSA Scanners Flagging 'Swamp Crotch'?Airport security drama: travelers are getting flagged at TSA checkpoints because of... crotch sweat. Turns out, sweat (aka 'swamp crotch') can set off those body scanners, leading to some super awkward pat-downs. It’s not just metal—moisture, certain fabrics, and even body shape can trigger alarms. Pro tip: moisture-wicking undies and loose, breathable clothes might save you from an embarrassing moment next time you fly. Anyone else had this happen? #Travel #TravelFails #TSA291266Share
Robin Long+FollowTSA Drama Over a Kid’s Stuffed Toy?!Imagine your kid’s fave stuffed animal getting flagged as a 'possible explosive' at airport security! That’s what happened to a 6-year-old whose beloved toy dog, Petey, was confiscated by TSA. Turns out, stuffed animals are allowed, but if they’re weighted or have weird materials, they might get extra screening—or even get left behind. After a lot of tears and drama, Petey was finally mailed home weeks later. Flying with plushies? Double-check what’s inside! #TSA #TravelDrama #ParentingWin #News127Share
darrell47+FollowTSA Gift Wrap Drama: What You Need to KnowJust found out TSA can totally unwrap your beautifully wrapped gifts at security! If you’re flying with presents, skip the wrapping paper and use gift bags instead—way easier for inspections. Or just pack your wrapping stuff and DIY at your destination. Pro tip: Ship gifts ahead or buy online and deliver straight to where you’re going. Checked bags are pricey and risky, so keep high-value gifts in your carry-on (and cushion them with clothes!). Don’t forget those liquid rules—3.4 oz max in a clear bag! #TravelTips #TSA #HolidayTravel #News10Share
boothconnor+FollowWaffle House ID vs. TSA: Who Wins?Someone tried to use a Waffle House ID at airport security and the internet lost it! The TSA had to jump in and remind everyone that, nope, your Waffle House badge (or even your Costco card) won’t get you on a plane. The post racked up millions of views, with people joking about how to score their own Waffle House ID. But if you’re flying, stick to the REAL ID or a passport—no hashbrown loyalty required! #WaffleHouse #TSA #TravelFails #News10Share
robertjones+FollowWaffle House ID at TSA? Not Gonna Fly!Someone tried to use their Waffle House card as ID at airport security, and TSA had to set the record straight: only REAL ID or approved alternatives will get you through! No more old driver’s licenses or creative cards—unless you want extra screening or to miss your flight. Oh, and double-check your snacks and gadgets, too—TSA’s cracking down on liquidy foods and banned a phone model over fire risks. Don’t get caught out! #TSA #TravelFail #RealID #News10Share
robertjones+FollowO’Hare Just Broke a Wild TSA RecordTravel is officially back! Chicago O’Hare just smashed its all-time TSA screening record, with nearly 114,000 people passing through in a single day. And it wasn’t just Chicago—nationwide, TSA had its busiest day ever, screening almost 3.1 million travelers. If you’re flying soon, expect crowds (and maybe pack some extra patience). Seven of O’Hare’s top 10 busiest days have happened in just the last five weeks. Wild, right? #TravelNews #TSA #Ohare #News20Share
gregorybrown+FollowStill Banned: The Phone TSA Won’t Let FlyDid you know the Samsung Galaxy Note7 is STILL banned on all US flights? Yup, even in 2025, TSA isn’t playing—this phone can’t be in your bag, pocket, or even checked luggage. A TikTok of an airport sign just went viral, and people are shook that this 2016 ban is still a thing. The reason? Those infamous battery fires. So, double-check your tech before heading to the airport—TSA’s watching! #TSA #TravelTips #SamsungNote7 #News3211Share
Charles Coleman+FollowTSA’s Wild Rules for Self-Defense GearEver wondered if you can bring pepper spray or a stun gun on a plane? TSA says nope for carry-ons, but yes if you pack them safely in checked bags. Firearms? Locked hard case, declared, and license ready. Even BB guns and ammo have their own rules (think: metal boxes, no carry-ons). But heads up—TSA agents have the final say, so don’t get too attached to your gear. Always double-check with your airline and the TSA site before you fly! #TravelTips #TSA #AirportSecurity #News102Share
Dr. Michael Henson+FollowYou Won’t Believe TSA Banned These!Packing for summer travel? Double-check your bags—TSA’s banned list just got wild. Sure, knives and rocket launchers are obvious, but did you know you can’t bring cooking spray, British Christmas crackers, or even a Magic 8-ball? Foam toy swords and gel candles are out too! The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is still a no-go (yep, still). Who knew party poppers and fertilizer could land you in hot water at security? Check the list before you fly or risk losing your weirdest souvenirs! #TravelTips #TSA #AirportSecurity #Travel233Share
dylan15+FollowYou Can Bring Your Goldfish on a Plane?!Turns out, while TSA bans a ton of stuff from your carry-on (think: big drinks, wrapped gifts, even toy guns), there’s one thing they’ll let you bring—and it’s wild. Your pet goldfish! Yup, as long as it’s in a clear, spill-proof container, your little fishy can fly with you. Just don’t try that with your morning coffee—liquids still have to follow the 3.4 oz rule. Who knew?! #TravelTips #TSA #TravelHacks #Travel30Share
