7 Items You CANNOT Bring On A Plane At The Las Vegas Airport!
Most all of us have been standing in line at TSA at Harry Reid International airport (formerly McCarran) in Las Vegas. While standing there we've all had that internal panic about what's in our pockets or bags. Did you make sure to take the pocket knife out? Do I have a gun in my pocket, for some reason? Can I bring this water bottle through security? I've compiled a list of 7 "SERIOUSLY?!" items that you cannot bring on your carry-on in the Las Vegas airport!
MAGIC 8 BALL:
"Will I make it through security?" Don’t even bother asking. Magic 8 Balls are a no-go in your carry-on because the liquid inside is apparently too risky. You can, however, toss it in your checked bag if you need a little help deciding between "Reply hazy" and "Ask again later."
HEATING PADS:
That comfy heating pad for your achy back? TSA says *nope* to carry-on. But if it’s in your checked luggage, it’s all good. Maybe the warmth could trigger the plane’s climate system? Or maybe TSA just wants you to suffer a little longer before you hit that hotel bed.
GEL INSOLES:
So you thought those squishy gel insoles would keep your feet comfy as you dash through the airport? Too bad. The gel inside makes them unwelcome in your carry-on. But hey, you can still toss 'em in the checked bag, because comfy feet at your final destination are the only ones that matter.
SNOW GLOBES:
You picked up a charming little snow globe at the souvenir shop—what could be more innocent? Apparently, snow globes are TSA’s arch-nemesis because of the liquid inside. In your carry-on? Forget it. In checked luggage? Sure, freeze your heart’s content.
CAST IRON PANS:
A good cast iron pan can survive *anything*—except TSA security. No carrying that bad boy on a plane. You can, however, check it in with your other essentials. No word on why you’re traveling with cookware, but hey, no judgment.
FOAM SWORDS:
Bringing your foam sword for a little cosplay convention in Vegas? Not in your carry-on, you're not. TSA sees foam swords as potential threats (really?). But throw it in the checked luggage, and you’ll be ready to duel Lancelot at baggage claim.
FERTILIZER:
The one item you *absolutely* can’t bring—whether it’s in your carry-on or checked bag—is fertilizer. It might seem like a random addition to your trip, but TSA isn’t messing around with this one. Too many explosive components in the mix, so best to leave the gardening supplies at home!
BONUS ROUND! 3 Weird Items YOU CAN Bring On The Plane:
Surprisingly, these next few things are TSA-approved for carry-ons. Ready for some head-scratchers?
TOOLS:
Yep, as long as they’re under 7 inches, tools are fine to bring. So if you feel like fixing up the plane’s plumbing mid-flight, have at it (kidding… please don’t).
SMALL SCISSORS:
Not all sharp things are banned. As long as your scissors are less than 4 inches, you're good to go! So feel free to do a little mid-flight crafting or snip away at those in-flight magazines.
DISPOSABLE RAZORS:
It’s true! While they seem sketchy, disposable razors are totally cool in your carry-on. So, no need to fear a last-minute, pre-beach shave, but please don’t decide to touch up your beard mid-flight—your seatmates might not appreciate that!
