You’ll be able to take 68 ounces of liquid through TSA at Denver International Airport… Sometime between now and 2040

It’s been 20 years, so by now most know that the TSA limits liquids in carry-on luggage to three ounces. But that will finally be be changing!

Airports have started upgrading to new scanners, which can allow for as many liquids as you want, in containers up to two liters, which is nearly 68 ounces.

They use something called “Computed Tomography” that can determine liquids differently. But there is a MAJOR catch.

The roll-out of the new scanners is VERY slow, and the TSA expects that it will take until the year 2040 to upgrade all 2,000 screening lanes in about 430 airports across the U.S.

Hopefully larger airports like Denver International Airport will get pushed to the front of the line, but it could be up to 16 years!!
