Yes

The answer is yes I posted this comment before I went through JFK and the unhelpful person who left the reply 'are you kidding'should get their facts straight before they leave posts?! I spoke to TSA at JFK in person and they said there would be no problem!

I am now the proud owner of a knife that i could not buy in the UK so very happy!

Do you absolutely need your passport when traveling to another country? Is there anyway to get away with just using a photocopy of it or something along those lines?

layovers

My daughter and I are flying to Amsterdam tomorrow morning, but first, we have a 7 and a half hour layover in NYC at JFK, does anyone know if we are able to leave during this time? I don't want to spend & hours in the airport with a 3 year old, and no one else does either, I can visit some friends near by, but recently someone told me they had trouble leaving the airport on a layover for an international flight...can someone tell me the policy?
