TRAVEL TIPS
Six weird things that could get you flagged by TSA

Navigating airport security can be a stressful experience, and sometimes small actions or behaviors can catch the attention of TSA agents. Here are six surprising things that could lead to extra scrutiny:

  1. Dressing for the Wrong Weather
    Wearing too many layers in warm weather or flip-flops in winter might seem odd and raise suspicion, especially if your luggage doesn’t match your outfit. TSA may think you’re hiding something.

  2. Excessive Yawning
    Yawning frequently, especially in line, could signal stress. Stress requires extra oxygen, so if you’re yawning a lot, TSA might question if there’s something you’re anxious about.

  3. Avoiding Eye Contact
    Not making eye contact can be seen as a sign of nervousness or that you’re trying to hide something. If you’re avoiding the TSA agent’s gaze, expect to be flagged for further questioning.

  4. Talking Too Much
    Nervous chatter is common, but talking excessively can raise suspicions. TSA agents may wonder if you’re trying to distract them from something you’re concealing.

  5. Strong Perfume or Cologne
    Heavy fragrance may seem like an attempt to cover up a smell, possibly drugs or other substances. If you’re wearing too much cologne or perfume, TSA might give you a closer look.

  6. Arguing or Being Aggressive
    If you’re acting aggressively or arguing, it can make TSA agents more likely to search you. They may suspect you’re hiding something or trying to deflect attention.

Being mindful of these behaviors can help you breeze through security without extra hassle.
