We heard a rumor that since it's #NationalWorkLikeADog day, the TSA K9 handlers are supposed to give out extra treats.

We can't say who started it for sure, but we have our suspicions...

Just a friendly reminder to double-check your hat for razor blades *before* you get to the airport. ✈️

Really though, summer travel season is almost here, so use this as a reminder to #PackSmart (aka don't bring prohibited items to the checkpoint).

Great catch by our team at BOS. ⬇️
