Sicheres und schnelles Passieren der Flughafenkontrolle bei internationalen Reisen
Prioritize wearing slip-on shoes, keep your liquids in a single clear 1-quart bag, and always have your passport and boarding pass in your hand, not buried in your bag. Efficiency at security is about minimizing the number of bins you use and keeping your personal items organized before you reach the front of the line.
- Prepare your liquids. Keep your 3.4oz (100ml) containers in a single, quart-sized, clear plastic bag. Place this bag at the very top of your carry-on so you can pull it out in two seconds.
- Streamline your attire. Wear socks, avoid belts, and wear slip-on shoes. If you must wear a jacket, ensure it is easy to remove. Do not wear heavy jewelry or large metal accessories that will trigger the metal detector.
- Organize your electronics. If you have a laptop or tablet, keep it in an accessible sleeve or pocket. You will likely need to pull it out and place it in its own bin.
- Use the 'Bin Strategy'. Put your shoes and liquids in one bin, your laptop in another, and your backpack/carry-on in a third. Don't crowd the bin with too many small items, as this makes it harder for security to scan.
- Watch the lane flow. Look for the lane where people are holding their IDs in their hands. Avoid lanes where people are still digging for their passports; they will slow you down significantly.
- Should I wear my coat through the scanner?
- No. Always remove your coat or heavy jacket and place it in a bin. It saves you from having to be patted down.
- What happens if I forget a bottle of water in my bag?
- You will be pulled aside for a bag search, which can add 10 to 15 minutes to your transit time. Always double-check your side pockets for stray bottles.
