Pre-flight checklist

Pick your airline, your firearm’s class and your route. Every step below shows the official wording it came from, a link to the source, and the date someone checked it. Nothing you choose leaves your phone.

This orders the rules that already exist and shows you where each one comes from. It does not decide anything for your trip — where the official sources are silent or disagree, it says so and names who to ask.
