What Gamers Should Know When Bringing Their Consoles Through TSA
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
TSA guidelines allow handheld consoles like the Nintendo Switch in both carry-on and checked baggage, while bulkier home systems require careful packing to avoid damage during screening. National rules apply uniformly across airports, but whether a device must be removed from a bag varies by flight and screening situation. The guidance matters as travel picks up and passengers carry expensive gaming hardware, including anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI before its eventual PC release. Travelers should watch for case-by-case instructions from screening officers and pack home consoles with protective padding.
