There is an alternative. Checkpoint friendly laptop bags are approved by the TSA (Transportation Security Administration). What do these bags have that others do not? It is necessary that there is a laptop pocket to separate the laptop from all other gadgets inside the bag. It truly is as simple as that.

Targus has designed such a laptop bag. It is called the Targus Zip-Thru Corporate Traveler Laptop Case. It is designed to fit a widescreen laptop as large as 15.4 “. Removable cushion pads protect smaller laptops. The patented SafePort Air Cushion System provides further cushioning.

This bag has a zip-down organizational pocket and a section that holds files. A zipper separates the bag into two sections. Each section lays flat. At that point the laptop can be scanned while inside the bag. This is the important feature that makes this a TSA Approved laptop bag.

After passing through the x-ray the bag can easily be picked up, zipped closed and carried away.
