Even if you are travelling with carry-on baggage only, you may still need to go through security again during your connection.

Whether another security check is required depends on the airport, your route, and how your connection is set up.

Why might I need to go through security again?

You may be required to pass through security again if:

• Your next flight departs from a different terminal
• You need to leave the secure transit area and re-enter the airport
• You are connecting between certain international and domestic flights
• The airport requires additional screening for your route

In these situations, travelling without checked baggage does not automatically mean you can avoid another security check.

When might I not need to go through security again?

You may not need another security check if:

• Your connection remains within the airport's secure transit area
• You can move directly to your next gate without leaving the airside area

This depends on the airport's layout and operating procedures.

What about self-transfer journeys?

Many Dohop itineraries are self-transfer journeys, which means your flights are booked on separate tickets.

Depending on the airport and airline requirements, you may need to:

• Pass through immigration or customs
• Collect and re-check baggage (if applicable)
• Go through security again before your next flight

Even when travelling with carry-on baggage only, additional security screening may still be required.

Before you travel

We recommend that you:

• Review the airport's transit information
• Check the requirements for your connecting airport
• Allow enough time between flights
• Contact the airport or airline directly if you are unsure about the transit process

Important to know

Security and transit procedures vary between airports and countries and can change without notice.

For the most accurate information, always follow instructions provided by the airport, airline, and local authorities.
