*Err on the side of caution and arrive early. Treat yourself to some pre flight Chickies and Pete’s crab fries and cocktails 🍸
*Pay attention to which line you enter - don’t get in the TSA Pre-Check line if pre-check is not noted on your reservation. Having to move to a new line after already waiting in line will cost you precious time.
*Organize your belongings to expedite a smooth security check. Have your passport or Real ID, boarding pass, and items that may need removed from your carry on for scanning easily accessible.
* DO NOT pack restricted items that will delay you at security - liquids over 3.4 ounces, explosives/flammables, and weapons
