Without PreCheck, standard lines ask for all personal items, including shoes, jackets, belts, and liquids bags, to be placed on the belt, with laptops separated. Stand tall and follow the scanner instructions.

Being organized significantly reduces delays.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How can first-time flyers stay calm during security checks?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being prepared, organized, and aware of procedures helps.

Understanding the steps reduces anxiety and keeps the process smooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Can I bring liquids purchased at the airport?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, liquids purchased after security or at duty-free shops are allowed on board and do not need to follow the 100 ml rule. <\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b><i>Disclaimer:\u00a0<\/i><\/b><i>Indian Eagle claims no credit for the images featured on its blog site.
