Air Travel in Great Falls – Shock Collars and More Allowed

Air Travel in Great Falls - Shock Collars and More Allowed

It wasn't very long ago that I was flying out of Great Falls International Airport to enjoy a family vacation.  After checking in through the counter and with TSA, we encountered someone with a strange carry on.

It had me thinking about some of the crazy things that might be allowed to be carried on the airplane.  We know about items that aren't allowed, but what crazy things does TSA say "nah, don't worry about that" to as well?

Of All the Things I Thought I Would See, This Wasn't on My Bingo Card

As we rolled into the checked in area at the airport, something on the floor caught my eye also waiting for a ride out of town.

Yep, a turtle!  Ready to hit the skies of Big Sky Country for lands unknown.

So if a turtle can fly, what else might be allowed by the TSA when you check in?  Believe it or not, there are other "live things" you can bring with you.  Like live fish.  Or even a lobster.  But there is way more to add to that crazy list.

Shock Collars Allowed - But Be Careful with How Much Shampoo You Have

Many of us know the rules when it comes to what you can't take with you on the airplane.  But some of the crazy things that TSA will allow will probably have you second guessing the carry on policy of airports.

Parachutes, knitting needles and body armor.  Really?  But it isn't just those that you could try and pack away for that trip to say 3-Mile Island.  Yep, a Geiger counter can be checked at the gate.

Hey, and if you are studying to be a swashbuckling pirate, you could even bring along your sword if you so chose to.  (Yes you will need to check it and it must be sheathed.)

Even human bones, shock collars and spurs are all good to go with TSA.
