If you haven't learned by now, ONLY bring what is extremely necessary on the plane. you can buy nail clippers and whatever else once you get through security.
Regardless of if you think it is ok to bring or not, TSA has the final answer. As much as I think they are knuckle dragging morons, they have the power over everyone. Don't argue, just throw out your $1 nail clippers or your $1.59 bottle of water, is it really worth missing a flight over?
Remember, TSA agents are people to, and most dont like their job so be nice to them, ask them how their day is going, etc, and it will go a LONG way promise me.
I fly 2x or so a month from east to west coast and have yet to ever been stopped or questioned. While, I'll see morons arguing over something stupid, like a bottle of conditioner and be detained and miss their flight.
Fact is terrorist won, they made our lives now an inconvenience for what was an enjoyable experience
