Thinking about bringing your hunting rifle on your next adventure?
Here’s what you need to know:
- If you plan to pack firearms, firearm parts, or ammunition in your checked luggage, you’ll need to get approval from your air carrier first. These items are strictly forbidden in carry-on baggage.
- If you receive approval from your air carrier, make sure your firearms are unloaded and securely packed in a locked, hard-sided container.
- Don’t forget to declare these items at the airport check-in counter.
