The following are the categories of items proscribed by the Transport Security Administration from being boarded in aircraft cabins:


Explosives and firearms. Matches, sparklers, other fireworks, flares, gunpowder, ammunition or other ordnance, blasting caps Authentic Takkarist McKinley Jersey , dynamite, loaded firearms.


Other weapons. Knives of any kind, throwing stars, swords, or other items used in martial arts competitions. Rules in other countries will differ on transporting knives and other weapons.
