CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Going through the TSA line at U.S. airports comes with little to no trouble for most experienced travelers. However, those who are inexperienced are at risk of making packing mistakes that could delay their trip.
There are a number of prohibited items that travelers often bring without knowing they are restricted from traveling with them. One of the more obvious of these items is a firearm.
Security at Charlotte Douglas International Airport found a record-breaking 106 firearms in the bags of passengers, The Charlotte Observer reported. More recently, U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina was cited for having a loaded gun at a TSA checkpoint.
