Airport Edge Cases

Weird, expensive, confusing things people travel with — checked against airport security, cabin baggage rules, checked baggage, customs, batteries, biosecurity and destination restrictions.

Three rules, one item at a time.

Airport security, airline checked baggage and destination customs are three separate systems. An item can pass security and still get refused at the border — that's why edge cases trip people up.
