These 11 Things Might No Longer Get You Flagged at TSA in North Dakota
Going on a nice spring or summer vacation is something we all look forward to after a long winter, but traveling to get to your tropical destination has its challenges.
TSA Requirements
The whole process of flying can be stressful. It starts with packing. What can I bring? What can't I bring? Is my bag too big? Will I have to check it? The questions and stress snowball.
Luckily, we have some good news. According to Yahoo News, since 2006 people boarding airplanes were to follow a few rules when it comes to certain items.
For example, you couldn't fly with more than 3.4 ounces of a liquid. The source says TSA adopted these guidelines as a counter-terrorism measure.
New Technology
Thanks to new technology, some of these strict rules and guidelines are changing.
Airports are starting to roll out computed tomography (CT) scanners. These scanners are currently going into the busiest airports, but I'm sure will trickle out to places like Bismarck, North Dakota, soon enough.
The source also says this upgrade will allow for some full-sized items to be carried through security in a carry-on bag.
The scanners can see the contents of a person's bag and assess potential threats.
The source says that as a result of this, the TSA is changing its policy on eleven new items.

The source say we could soon see shampoo, perfume, sunscreen, and body wash added to this list, but for now, we still have to follow the 3.4 ounce rule.
Since we're gearing up for summer trips, let's look at some places you might want to avoid.
