Carry-on baggage description

Carrying carry-on luggage can save time-you don't have to queue up when you check in, and you don't have to claim your luggage when you arrive-it's much more convenient to get in and out of the airport.

If there are liquids, gels or aerosols in your luggage, please remember the following points:

Passengers on any domestic or international flight departing from American airports can pass the security check with their carry-on baggage and board the plane with cosmetics of trial size (no more than 3.4 ounces), which can be purchased at pharmacies.

Cosmetics must be easily packaged in transparent plastic bags with zipper seal of 1 quart (7.5 inches x 8 inches).

At the airport security checkpoint, the zippered plastic bag must be placed separately so as to be taken out when approaching the inspection area.

In addition, drinks or cosmetics purchased outside the airport security checkpoint can also be carried on board.

Items in plastic bags weighing more than 3.4 ounces and/or not sealed with zippers must be scanned by TSA at security checkpoints before they can be taken on board the plane. Such items include infant formula, milk (including breast milk), baby food, fruit juice, diabetes or other drugs, liquids or gels needed by patients.

There are different restrictions on flights departing outside the United States. Passengers must meet the special security restrictions at the departure airport.

It is recommended to check the airport processing time before going to the airport to ensure that there is enough time to deal with the extra affairs that need to be dealt with.

Please note that passengers are prohibited from carrying any equipment used to (permanently or temporarily) change or restrict the functions of aircraft structures, seat assemblies, dining tables and other facilities.

Please visit the US Transportation Security Administration website for more details and examples of licensed items.

Due to the high security level of airports around the world, gifts and parcels need to be inspected like carry-on luggage. In order to save airport security time, Continental Airlines recommends that you use luggage and packages that are easy to open and check when traveling. This saves a lot of trouble in security inspection.
