Puerto Vallarta – TSA & Laptops

April 28, 2018
Puerto Vallarta

You must have had enough of news regarding the recently released regulations for traveling with laptops as a panic part for the routine travelers who rely hard on their laptops while traveling.

We are among those frequent travelers who have seen almost every in and out of Puerto Vallarta while traveling across plenty of times and luckily, never encountered any problem or some ‘bad’ experience. Thanks to Lord.

There have been times when we left our laptops or tablets unintentionally in the knapsack and received no questions or penalties against it.  But, while being a legal citizen, we don’t overlook the other side and follow the rules as best as we can to be on safe side.

In order to comply with every one’s safety needs, we either like to be rule-oriented rather than rule-breaker by giving polite responses upon getting questioned by the higher authorities .We must need to understand the fact that the people hired in security is for the sake of our safety and we need to cooperate with them by realizing the hard points of their job and tedious day out with blazing sun at the top of their heads.

The job that they are doing is seriously a thankless service and a boring part that they are playing for their family hood.

Recently, we got an opportunity to check with the TSA rules and regulations enforced for passengers, to see the current listings in practice while traveling   to and from Puerto Vallarta for an incredible Vacation villas Puerto Vallarta and discovered that the request is for laptops to be removed from the carrier and placed in a separate bin for x-ray screening.

If you are lucky enough to be of TSA Pre✓ status, there is seriously no need to remove your shoes, laptops, 3-1-1 liquids, belts, or light jackets. You can check the website of TSA for further information related to this.

If you wish to apply for TSA Pre✓, then apply directly via visiting their website online at www.tsa.gov with a long list of queries being answered about what to carry and what not to during flight .In case you don’t see an item in question on the list, there is a smart method to get the information in hand by taking a photo with your smart phone and send a question to AskTSA on Facebook Messenger or Twitter.

This service can be availed during weekdays and holidays, between normal business hours.

It’s a good thing to check if you have even the remotest thought about something not being permitted. Sometimes when you think you’ve done it all right, you end up being the subject of additional screening if an item triggers any kind of alarm at the checkpoint. This is why we need to get to the airport early.

It’s a common practice in US, to unload firearms in a locked hard-sided container and get it properly declare through customs before travel, but don’t ever try to bring one to Puerto Vallarta.

Que cómo es es.
