  • I have been binging all of your videos and they are so helpful!! I am leaving for Costa Rica in the morning and it's my first time on a plane I'm a little nervous 😓 Thank you for all of your wonderful tips
  • @DChristina
    Great video, thank you! I’m flying with my cousins to my dad’s homeland- I haven’t flown for 15 years. I’ve had a knee & wrist replacement plus steel parts in foot. I’m nervous anyway to fly- hoping it’s not too terrible going through security🙏🏼✈️💕🌿
  • @Sanjay-yd1jq
    I have been looking for this information for some time. And you totally nailed all my questions. Thank you so much
  • @shaffehaffejee3657
    Sushmita: love yr videos Ben... you are on point (unlike many others) Haven't travelled internationally since 2020 - travelling in 2 wks to Turkey - worried but feeling less stressed when viewing your video - thanks a million ❤👍
  • @beniewite7712
    I haven’t watched all your videos yet, but the ones that i have watched are very helpful Thank you so much...🙏🏾
  • Wonderful! Exactly what I need. Details! I won't be taking my long haul until September, and this is one year old? I hope things won't have changed too much! Thanks!
  • @lordteabelly
    Great video and very helpful!! im flying to seattle from uk in sept and ive not flown in over 10yrs so im excited but was nervous about what to pack in hand luggage and what id need to remove for security. Glad you clarify jewellery is ok to wear, as i wear a few rings, bracletts and a chain and ear rings so wasnt sure if i could travel in them or not
  • @mikkiismyname
    Love your videos. They are detailed and straight to the point. I'll be traveling with a small dslr camera, one small lens, and the rechargeable litihium battery. Will this be ok going through tsa in my backpack? Backpack is all I'm traveling with, and I dont want to take a camera bag.
  • @leewainman4928
    Great video info so if I have a normal leather wallet can I keep that on me along with my cash and card in my pocket
  • @tataniclovely
    The only thing I don’t like is removing my shoes. Some airports force you to take off shoes. And I don’t like the part putting shoes on the same cloth trays it’s really dirty. They should have separate shoe trays instead.
  • @googlestinx
    Hello I have hair loss and use a wig with clips to secure. I plan to change these metal clips to plastic clips should that be ok?
  • @asifm5153
    At Mumbai airport, we had jewelry box which was checked separately by the security, is this common practice?
  • @NaeNay.
    Can I leave a small bag with cash and ids in a personal bag to go through the scanner?
  • @deltablue3380
    Also make sure you lock your bags and luggage with a non tsa lock because they steal
  • @sarahf251
    Do you need to remove gold jewelry? You mentioned most jewelry doesn’t have much metal. Wanted to check!
