Airline Security - Disposable Rezors
 

Flying out of JFK. Does Security confiscate disposable razors in carry on luggage? What should I leave out of my toiletry bag that could be confiscated?

Disposable razors are fine.

I think the only razors that would be a problem are straight razors and those individual razor blades you buy at the hardware store.

What will (or maybe) confiscated depending on the TSA's mood:

swiss army knifes, straight razors, scissors of any kind tweezers, safety pins, metal nail files...you get the idea.

I cannot travel without my tweezers, so I pack them in my checked baggage.

Security is not as thorough as it was in the weeks following 9/11. They might let these things go by, but I do not take the chance as it is a real pain in the neck. For instance, sometimes I have to remove my shoes, sometimes I do not....go figure!

I think if you go to the airlines website you will get guidelines on what is allowed and what is not.

Tweezers are now allowed thankfully.:)

Safety razors (including disposable razors) are allowed by TSA. <b>

I have printed these lists to show to the security agents. Whether this will persuade some agent who simply wants to show his/her power and is too stupid to accept the law is another matter. If I were turned down, I would ask to see a supervisor. ((C))
