Can it be carried concealed while flying?

Whether you’re traveling with your family or on business, you probably want to keep your firearm with you. But what if you travel by air? You can’t wear a gun on a plane, but you may not know it, you can carry a gun in checked luggage as long as you follow certain rules. If you try to carry concealed on a plane with you, they will notify you to go to jail, so you are out of luck trying to carry a gun. But if you want to look it up, that’s a whole other story.


The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has a number of regulations that must be followed for inspecting firearms, including securing unloaded guns in a hard-sided, locked container and checking them with airport security personnel. Be sure to check all the rules before attempting to check guns in your luggage.

As long as you strictly follow the rules, you shouldn’t have any problems checking your gun. You should be prepared to arrive at the airport early as the process takes extra time. It’s also important to think about the city and state you’ll be flying into before you pack your gun. Just like on road trips, be sure to read the individual laws of the state and verify that your concealed carry permit is recognized there.
