Great info!!!
|
I just got back from a trip to Spain and Italy. No problem with my small stork scissors in my carryon or a container of needles. However, about 4 yrs. ago I did have my scissors taken away in Ireland. Travel within the country here has given me no problems with small scissors, however, I would take one you could lose without wanting to cry.
|
I took my croos stitch and a pair of kiddy scissors. No one said anything. They went through the x-ray with no trouble.
|
Thank you everyone for all the info! I kinda know what im going to be bring with me =)
|
I would also print out the TSA Rules & Regs. just as a back-up. Highlight what you are taking that is allowed.

Wyte Never mind that a broken wine bottle (and they let anyone bring on wine bottles purchased in duty free shops...) would be a better weapon than any pair of nail clippers or small scissors... |
I have a small round disk that is designed to cut thread, but the cutting part is hidden inside the metal disk. It is attractive enough to be worn on a chain or lanyard of some kind. There are several indentations on the sides of the disk, and you just put the thread through there. Not only is it not dangerous or threatening, most people would have no clue as to what it is!

Hi, I was allowed to bring my quilt and quilting needle on board, but half way to Washington, I lost my needle. When my seatmate stood up ready to leave, lo and behold there was my needle on her seat. I don't know who was luckier, the stranger or myself. Have a great trip and check with the airline to find out what they allow: scissors,needles etc.

Four years ago, even though I checked the site, I forgot about the scissors and knife in my Swiss Army card tucked into my wallet. Fortunately, I was able to step out of line and post it home. Not an expensive item to lose but my DH had given it to me and I feel sentimental about it. Thanks for the site - what a neat card! In case you've never seen it, this is a great gift item. Fits into a wallet. You can get them for between $20 and $25. No affiliation, just a very satisfied user of it. http://www.victorinox.com/category/1/100/1009 |
