    If you use one of the containers at screening, please take it off of the belt afterwards.Have consideration for your fellow travelers.And DO NOT get dressed in front of the belt,grab your stuff & move

    Put on your coat, belt, shoes etc. in the correct area, not while standing at the baggage belt while blocking everyone else from getting their bags.

    Go all the way down to security checkpoint 9 by Vigin's desk. Hardly wait more than 10minutes! And only one full body scanner means a better chance at getting old fashioned metal detector instead!

    Bypass the nude-o-scope by asking for a private screening. Then watch them fumble over trying to figure out how its supposed to work!
