Learn genius hacks for packing light and staying stress-free this season You don't have to own a Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to know that what you carry aboard an airplane matters. Whether you're planning to fly or drive, it's a smart idea to pack strategically. Before you map out items to place into your suitcase, use these tips to ensure you comply with ever-changing TSA airport security rules, take advantage of the latest luggage inventions and add some cheer – and comfort – to your holiday travels. Get Smart on Carry-on and Checked Bag Regulations Once you've booked your holiday vacation, plan for the journey. In the case of Samsung, the FAA banned the transport of original and replacement devices as "forbidden hazardous materials." Before your trip, brush up on what else the FAA considers hazardous. While many items might seem obvious, dangerous substances can be found in common items. For instance, the rubber cement kids like to use to make glitter Christmas cards, old camping stoves and aerosol spray starches for ironing holiday outfits are all banned items. And kids can carry scooters aboard, but drones will be disallowed – even in checked luggage – if they contain a lithium ion battery that is 100Wh or above. Also keep in mind at present, pies, cakes and turkeys are OK to carry on, but cranberry sauce, dips, jams and gravy must be checked. Unfortunately, the TSA has a different TSA Prohibited Items list. Make sure to stay up to date on the latest regulations by visiting TSA.gov/travel on packing day.
