Special Considerations

Air Travel

We have developed standardized security screening procedures for all airports. Therefore, you can expect that you will encounter essentially the same procedures at each airport you visit.

While the same screening procedures are used for virtually all passengers, we recognize that some passengers may have special needs or require additional assistance during the screening process. To maintain excellent security and customer service, our Security Officers have been trained to be sensitive to and respectful of the needs of all passengers.

The Security Process & Preparation Tips

We have identified some helpful information that explains the security screening procedures as they may apply to groups with special needs. If you fall into any one of the categories identified below, you may want to familiarize yourself with this information before arriving at the airport.

Your knowledge of the procedures, and observance of the tips and recommendations, will help you move through the security checkpoint quickly and efficiently.
