So if I were to have a bottle of contact lens solution and my contact lens in their case, immersed in more solution, in my carry-on bag, would the airport security confiscate them because of the no-liquids-on-plane rule? D:

Here in the US, we have to take them out of our carry on luggage, and put them in a clear baggie (often provided by the airport). They go through security sensors on their own. I don't think they'll get confiscated, unless Canada has much different rules.

I'll be flying to Buffalo to Jacksonville, so this info helps a lot, thanks! :D It's been a while since I've flown within the States.

Depending on how big the bottle is, you may not be able to bring it on the plane at all. For travel in the US you have to put any and all liquids under so many ounces in a clear plastic quart zippy and put that separately through the x-ray when going through security.

I just play it safe and put my contacts and contact solution in the clear bag when I fly.

I have a tiny 60 ml (2 oz, I think?) bottle of solution, so hopefully it'll be okay. Thanks for the info! :D

as long as its 3oz or less and in the plastic ziploc, you're good to go. :)

I just have a tiny bottle of solution and some eye drops, so hopefully it'll be okay -- thanks for the info! :D

Yeah, like other people said.

Anything liquid (including toothpaste and other sorts of gels - literally anything that could be considered liquid-y) must be in 3oz or less bottles and in a QUART-sized plastic bag. Sizes are important! Here (http://www.tsa.gov/311/) is the official gov't website that gives you more detail, but what I told you is basically it.

Traveling is so hard. :(

I guess I'll be spending all of tomorrow morning finding little bottles to squeeze my lotions and crap into. D: We decided to forgo checking in baggage 'cause we're not bringing all that much, but ugh, all these restrictions. D:!!

.... Ahhh, yeah. AREN'T YOU LUCKY THAT I CAUGHT THIS POST.

But yeah. Anything liquid/gel bigger than 3oz is a big no-no. :(((( And um. A 1-quart bag isn't huge either. :\\\\ Some stores (like Target - does canada even have targets? But like. Drugstores too I guess), because of the new regulation, sell 3oz bottles for convenience.

YES, YES I AM. Otherwise they would've confiscated my big bottle of baby lotion (baby lotion does awesome stuff for your skin).

I have no idea how big a 1-quart bag is. D: Do the airport people supply you with a bag and tell you to dump all your liquids-in-bottles in it?

BABY LOTION. :P

Umm. It's small. :| Like, a little bigger than those fold-y sandwich bags. I don't think you'd be able to fit more than 5 3oz bottles. :|||| Like, that'd be super hard.

IT DOES WONDERS FOR SKIN. BABY SOFT, OKAY.

I'm going with my parents, so that's like three bags! 15 3oz bottles! :Db A regular tube of toothpaste is like 2oz, right? The label says 60mL, which is like 2-something oz, I think.

sldkfj also, my airport supplies bags, but I can't say that all airports do.
