  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
