Security at Will Rogers World Airport means keeping travelers safe. We work together with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to provide the best air travel security possible.
Knowing security regulations before you leave home can speed your trip through airport passenger screening. The TSA encourages travelers to “know before you go.” For information about the latest security guidelines, questions about baggage screening, lists of items allowed or prohibited in baggage, visit the Transportation Security Administration's website.
The TSA is responsible for screening every passenger who flies and every bag that boards a plane. Will Rogers World Airport has two passenger screening checkpoints located on either end of the ticket lobby.
- All passengers must pass through one of these screening checkpoints before they can proceed to airline departure gates
- At passenger screening locations, TSA security officers will process you and your carry-on bag
- To proceed through screening, you will need a current government-issued ID and a valid boarding pass for a flight
Prepare for screening:
- Learn what you can take in a carry-on bag
- Have liquids and gels in containers of three ounces or less, and have the containers in a one, quart-sized, zip-top plastic bag
- Remove the plastic bag from your carry-on bag and put it in a screening bin
- Place metal objects, such as coins and keys, in your carry-on bag
- Put laptop computers in a screening bin
- Remove shoes, jackets and belts and put them in screening bins
Remember, whether you are arriving or departing from Will Rogers World Airport, all baggage and vehicles are subject to search at any time.
Do not leave bags unattended. Unattended bags will be confiscated and may be destroyed. If you notice an unattended item or suspicious activity, immediately report it to airport personnel.
