So the advice about a strong password etc is good but due to some made up legal loopholes I think they can still legally compel you to unlock your phone in an airport.
What you have to do is learn how to make and restore encrypted backups of your phone, back everything up, and then wipe it / factory reset it before going through. Any important phone numbers you absolutely cannot do without while going through, memorize.

My understanding is that they can legally make you do a biometric unlock but not a password.
Now, what cops legally can do and what cops actually do ain’t exactly the same though.
Yes but borders and airports are treated differently legally.
