In order to ensure that all items being transported on an airplane are safe, the TSA has put into place a number of rules and regulations. One of these is the requirement that all items being transported be placed in a container or bag specifically designed for air travel. In most cases this means using a TSA-approved luggage or suitcase. However, there are some items that cannot be placed in regular luggage and must be transported using a separate form. One such item is an oxygen tank. If you are traveling with an oxygen tank, you will need to complete and submit a Tsa Form 2212 prior to your flight. Let's take a closer look at what this form entails and how to complete it correctly.
The following are some specifics of tsa form 2212. You'll have the projected time it might take you to fill out the form and several additional details.
