WASHINGTON, July 2 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — As the 4th of July approaches and summer travel heats up, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) reminds travelers to be prepared and plan ahead for airport security procedures.
To prepare for summer travel, TSA is working with the aviation industry to ensure the highest levels of security for all travelers. TSA also has Family Lanes at every security checkpoint, designed to allow infrequent travelers or those with special needs more time to process through the security checkpoint. In addition, our highly trained security officers are also prepared for your travel and are dedicated to ensuring your safety. Resources for travelers are available at www.tsa.gov, including travel tips and a detailed list of prohibited items, like fireworks.

“TSA encourages passengers to be ready for summer travel by taking a moment to think about airport security procedures,” said TSA Acting Administrator Gale Rossides. “Passengers can help improve security for everyone and allow our security officers to perform their vital security mission effectively, simply by coming prepared.”
