30 TSA Tips That Will Make Security Screening a Cinch

10. Don't wait until the last minute

Every second counts when you're stuck in snaking security lines.

Don't be that person who's feverishly fumbling through their bag at the last minute. Not only is that stressful for you, but it's annoying to everyone else equally eager to get to the end of the line. Make sure you have your passport, boarding pass, and any other travel documents readily available before you get anywhere near that first checkpoint.

And start taking off your belt, shoes, jacket, watch, and any other items that will go in the bins well before you reach that conveyor belt.
