Traveling with an Urn?

Since the tragic events of September 11th, 2001 the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) has implemented procedures that basically state that in order for an urn to be hand carried into the cabin of a commercial aircraft, it must first be x-rayed by security screeners. If security screeners are unable to view, during the xray process, the contents of the urn they will insist that the urn be checked as checked baggage. To avoid uncomfortable situations, Passages International, Inc has created all of its urns to clearly allow security screeners to view the contents of the urn thereby allowing the urn to be carried on board the aircraft.
