TSA Alerts: What You Can't Pack in Fairbanks | Anchorage News

Summer travel’s heating up—and so is TSA scrutiny at Fairbanks Airport. Don’t get caught with surprise items like knives, ulu blades, or jams in your carry-on—they’ll slow down the whole line. Bear spray and camping fuel? Banned in both carry-ons and checked bags. This week, travelers left behind bike chains, multi-tools, corkscrews, and more—often unaware they even had them. If flagged, you can check, leave, or abandon items (TSA handles the rest). Most folks stay cool, but some get frustrated when “safe” items get flagged. Pro tip: Double-check your bags and give yourself extra airport time. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
