Traveling during the holidays? Here's a quick rundown of food items you can or cannot carry onto flights.
Items such as pies, baked goods, stuffing, vegetables, spices, fruits, candy, and certain meats are allowed in your carry-on baggage.
However, items with a liquid consistency, including canned fruits or vegetables (like yams), cranberry sauce, jams, maple syrup, wine, and gravy, should be checked with your luggage.
If you're uncertain about specific items in your Thanksgiving dinner that should be checked, reach out to the TSA via their social media platforms for clarification.
