We always check bags, but because this trip to Mexico is only 4 nights, my husband and I are determined to avoid checking. I am very well aware of the 3-1-1, but I need my razor and tweezers... Are these allowed in carry-on bag?

abram

suze

yes.

This is a handy website tsa.gov

thanks ;-)
I, of course, looked on the tsa site...there was nothing listed in regards to tweezers and the razor section wasn't specific. So, I came here to all of you avid travellers.

gels & liquids are the big deal these days. i came thru TSA yesterday bewteen Hawaii/Seattle and water bottles were the #1 thing being taken away from people!

Ben's Bug spray was taken away from us leaving Panama earlier this year. This spray bottle had traveled with us to Alaska, Florida, Guatemala, Belize, Barbados, Thailand, China, Argentina, Brazil and into Panama. But they wouldn't let us leave with it!

Was the bottle larger than 3 oz?

Neuman605

No the bottle was 1 1/2 oz, totally crazy since it had traveled all over before. Maybe they just needed some spray!?

tsa website said small scissors (nail size) were allowed, but when we came back from Cabo they took them away. when i said i had checked the website they asked which one. i said tsa and they said "this is mexico!" tsa apparantly only applies in the usa??

Yes - It is a US federal department. Has nothing to do w/ other countries.
