Navigating Airport Security Like a Pro

I used to be the person fumbling with my shoes, holding up the line. Now, I’ve got it down to a science. Wear slip-on shoes. Have your liquids in a clear, quart-sized bag on top of your carry-on. Take your laptop out of the bag before you get in line. And for the love of God, double-check you don’t have a water bottle in your bag. I’ve had to chug a liter of water at the checkpoint more times than I’d like to admit. TSA PreCheck or Global Entry is worth the money if you fly more than twice a year. It saves so much time and stress.
