We all know there are pretty tight restrictions on what liquid and/or gel products you can take aboard an aircraft now. I thought it would be useful to post the details from the TSA website, specifically the exempt items. See below.




Can I Take It?

Due to enhanced security measures liquids, gels, lotions and other items of similar consistency will not be permitted in carry-on baggage. These types of items must be packed in your checked baggage.
Additionally, liquids, gels and lotions purchased beyond the checkpoint but must be disposed of before boarding the aircraft.
To ensure the health and welfare of certain air travelers the following items are permitted.

• Small amounts of Baby formula and breast milk if a baby or small child is traveling
• Liquid prescription medicine with a name that matches the passenger’s ticket
• Up to 5 oz. (148ml) of liquid or gel low blood sugar treatment
• Up to 4 oz. of essential non-prescription liquid medications including saline solution, eye care products and KY jelly
• Gel-filled bras and similar prostethics
• Gel-filled wheelchair cushions
• Life support and life sustaining liquids such as bone marrow, blood products, and transplant organs carried for medical reasons

You are permitted to bring solid cosmetics and personal hygiene items as such lipstick, lip balm and similar solids. Please remember these items must be solid and not liquid, gel or aerosol.
Please keep in mind, that while we can not provide an exhaustive list of items covering all eventualities, all liquids, gels, or aerosols of any kind are prohibited at security checkpoints, in airport sterile areas, and aboard aircraft. You can pack these items in your checked baggage.
We ask for your cooperation in the screening process by being prepared before you arrive. We also ask that you follow the guidelines above and try not to over-think these guidelines. Please pack liquids, gels, and aerosols in your checked baggage even if you do not normally check a bag.
In addition to liquids, gels, and aerosols numerous other potentially dangerous items are not permitted in carry-on baggage. We strongly encourage travelers to read more about previously prohibited items to avoid complications during screening.

I heard about this. Went to the airport the other day and I was there for about an hour. Every five minutes they were warning people about it! It was annoying.

BTW Urban, that means no anal lube for you .

I can't believe i can't bring my lips gloss but you can bring KY jelly onthe plane......maybe i should try glossing my lips with....ooooh nooooo thats just wrong...forget it....

Yeah... not such a good idea, although I'd be happy to oblige. You see the extra sodium content on your lips will dry you out in the airconditioning and probably make you thirsty and ..... wait, you meant the KY? Oh, okay.

tell the folks from the UK that were on the plane with the guy with the IPod and Gatorade bomb that it is a 'blown-out-of-proportion' issue.

its your security...take it from someone who has been in the airline industry for almost 10 years...yes...it sucks i agree (on a personal note...i have to fly standby...which usually means CARRY-ON baggage only for me...and yes the rules apply to me as well...no liquids, gels or pastes. this means i have to BUY everything upon arrival to wherever i am going)...but might as well get used to it.

Yeah, Lilith is right... we may be inconvenienced but better safe than sorry. I don't mind the extra security--I tell myself that every time I'm stuck in the airport for 3 hours, lol.

I would get pissed though if I couldn't have the KY anymore... that would be a serious inconvenience.
