Američko Ministarstvo unutrašnje bezbjednosti ima zvanični profil na Instagramu, gdje objavljuju slike svih predmeta koje putnici pokušaju unijeti u avion.

Bob Birns, radnik ove Agencije, koji radi na sigurnosnoj provjeri na aerodromu, svakog dana ostaje iznenađen količinom čudnih predmeta koje ljudi pokušavaju da prokrijumčare.

Na listi se nalaze noževi, puške, živi jastozi teški desetak kilograma, pečene pite od oraha, 450 zamotuljaka meksičke hrane tamales i sličnih jestivih stvari.

„Ljudi ne očekuju da će na vladinom Instagram profilu pronaći humor, ali isto tako ne očekuju ni sve te lude stvari koje ljudi pokušavaju da unesu u avion“, kaže Bob.

Most travelers stuff socks in their shoes. This Milwaukee (MKE) traveler chose inert grenades. Items such as these can lead to evacuations and delays while explosives professionals try to figure out what they are. Please don’t pack grenades.

The traveler assured us there was no “fowl” play afoot and that this was simply her service duck. Our officers at Charleston (CHS) were overheard saying that this duck was pretty chill. Not lame at all… Please contact your airline about their policies on service animals prior to arriving at the airport. It’s good to have all your ducks in a row.

One could say that these travelers were axe-ing for trouble when they packed these hatchets in their carry-on bags. From left to right, these were discovered at ABQ, DEN, SAN and JNU. If you find yourself needing to travel with an axe or hatchet, please pack them in your checked bags.

This Boston Logan (BOS) TSA officer found himself in a pinch and needed to remove this giant lobster from its container to resolve a checked baggage alarm. This is proof that lobsters are allowed in carry-on and checked bags. As you can imagine, they’re a popular item at New England airports. Just check with your airline first for packing guidelines. Oh, in case you were wondering, butter and cheddar biscuits are permitted as well.

This gives “protection” a whole new meaning. However, fines stink, and concealed items such as this knife in a deodorant container can lead to a fine and even an arrest. Don’t sweat it; just pack your knife in your checked bag. Also, stick deodorant (without a knife) is permitted in carry-on bags in any amount. It’s the liquid, gel and aerosol deodorant that must adhere to our liquid rules. This was discovered in a carry-on bag at the Bradley International Airport.
