anyone have reliable links to the items not allowed? I always see the same list of crap, but never a link to a reliable site. My searches have come up empty and their site says just liquids n such.
mainly looking to see about the supposive ban on electronic equip. |

There was an email that I got that listed items not allowed, but I think it might've been international flights.
No Ipods or cell phones as I recalled. It all has to be czeched in. |
