This and that from an airport near you

Some people scroll through TikTok dances at the end of the day.

We click through the airport and airline news on Twitter.

Here are some items we stopped to read Tuesday evening.

Leave the fireworks at home

July 4th is going to be a busy time at airports and long security lines might make tempers flare. Don’t make it worse by bringing fireworks (even sparklers) in your carry-on bag.

As the July 4th holiday approaches, please remember that sparklers and other fireworks are not permitted to be brought on your flight in a carry-on or checked bag. They are highly flammable! These were removed from a carry-on bag by @TSA at @ALB recently. pic.twitter.com/WogswG4zd5

Southwest Airline’s Freedom One

This plane with a patriotic livery is making the rounds. Be sure to watch how they made the paint scheme happen.

We had a special visitor at LAS today: @SouthwestAir's #FreedomOne stopped over in Las Vegas. The airline celebrates its 50th Anniversary with this high-flying tribute to the nation, the military and SWA’s 50,000+ employees. Click to watch the painting of this unique livery. https://t.co/V1Z7Kugxj4 pic.twitter.com/rIwaXP2syQ
