TSA allows larger amounts of medically necessary liquids, gels, and aerosols in reasonable quantities for your trip, but you must declare them to TSA officers at the checkpoint for inspection. Labeling these items can help facilitate the screening process. Also declare accessories associated with your liquid medication such as freezer packs, IV bags, pumps and syringes. Inform the TSA officer that you have medically necessary liquids and/or medications and separate them from other belongings before screening begins. Medication can undergo a visual or X-ray screening and may be tested for traces of explosives. You are responsible for displaying, handling, and repacking the medication when screening is required. Check with state laws regarding prescription medication labels. Medications in pill or other solid form must undergo security screening. It is recommended that medication be clearly labeled to facilitate the screening process. Carry-on baggage and other accessible property will undergo standard screening in standard lanes, including removal of laptops, 3-1-1- liquids, and CPAP/BPAP equipment. This may happen when the TSA PreCheck® lane is closed, for example. Travelers with disabilities with TSA PreCheck® on their boarding passes will receive TSA PreCheck® on-person screening when screened in a standard lane for any reason. Also, TSA officers may swab your hands, mobility aids, equipment and other external medical devices to test for explosives using explosives trace detection technology. However, if you are required to undergo additional screening for any reason, a pat-down may be required, which includes the removal of items such as shoes, belts, or light jackets. If your TSA PreCheck® designation has been verified at a participating airport, you do not need to remove shoes, laptops, 3-1-1 liquids, belts, or light jackets during the screening process. You are required to undergo screening at the checkpoint by technology or a pat-down. If you have other questions or concerns about traveling with a disability please contact passenger support.
