22. Traveling with pets? Know the security protocol

Bringing your furry friend on your trip? Be prepared to remove your pet from its carrier during the security screening. While you hand-carry your pet through the metal detector, agents will screen the carrier separately with an X-ray.

Remember, you will need to remove their leash before walking through the detector. Being ready for this process will help you prepare, ensuring your pet stays calm and you can both avoid issues. Traveling with pets can be a joy, so make it hassle-free by understanding the rules.
