    Most small ones are 8 oz ,,, the largest single container you can bring on a plane is 3 oz

    We do the toiletries bottles...we also take some of the vodka pre-mixed into OJ and drink it in the cab on the way to the airport and before we go security while we're eating our breakfast.

    They've never questioned our little bottles as we have it in the ziploc bag with our hand sanitizer, eye drops, chap stick...stuff like that. They kind of all blend in. Also, put the bag in the tray first then strategically place your sweater over top...never had a problem so far.

    No Problem

    If the botlles are 3oz or less, 50ml, TSA does not care. the airline might if you get checked at the gate.

    Pack it up in your quart bag and throw um on the belt. Been doing it for years.

    My bag is packed. See ya at TTR on March 6.!!!!!

    No worries, I figured that's what you meant. Just didn't want anyone lose a bottle at security to start a trip off :aktion030:

    Alcohol in carry-on baggage is subject to the liquid restrictions. Duty-free alcohol purchased after the security screening checkpoint can be brought in carry-on baggage, but may not be permitted if connecting to another flight, even if they are in security tamper-evident bags (STEBs). Exceptions: As of June 1, 2011, duty-free purchases from any of the European Union nations packaged in a security tamper-evident bag will be accepted for screening at the following airports: Toronto-Pearson, Montreal-Trudeau, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa and Halifax. Please see Duty-free purchases more information.
    Passengers may transport bottles of alcohol in their checked baggage if:

    • The percentage of alcohol by volume is 70 per cent (140 proof) or less
    • For alcoholic beverages, between 24% and 70% alcohol by volume, the quantity does not exceed 5 litres per person.
    Note: alcoholic beverages containing 24% alcohol or less are not subject to limitations on quantities.


    I just found this on TSA Canada! Who knew! SWEET!!!!! I guess I have some more shopping to do. Now, Any ideas what the dimensions of a liter or quart ziploc bag are? Stupid way to measure a bag.
