gonzalesna 1 #1 July 10, 2007 Ridin' the sporty to Phoenix today... then tomorrow... I'm leavin' on a jet plane... don't know when I'll be back again! new airline rules are pissing me off... I'm gonna hafta buy soap and other crap once I get there due to the damn limit on liquids and stuff.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gonzalesna 1 #2 July 10, 2007 I changed my mind... I'm not buying soap. I'll be the stinky homeless guy at the DZ. (Sorry if I've offended any stinky homeless guys already residing at the DZ.)

sharimcm 0 #3 July 10, 2007 Um dude... All you need is a quart size plastic bag... Stick everything liquid under 4 oz. in there. When you get to the security checkpoint, take your plastic bag out of your suitcase and stick it in a bin by itself. Then, when they x-ray it, take it out of the bin, put it back on your suitcase, and go to your gate. Trust me... With all the flying that I did just recently, I am an expert on the subject.

Do the liquids and pastes (i.e. toothpaste and lube) need to be in the plastic bag or can I just put them in my bag and let them look through them? I'm feelin' lazy and don't wanna do a search.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie.

sharimcm 0 #5 July 10, 2007 Are you checking your bags or carrying it on? That will make a difference... Hell, why do I ever bother? You're a man. You won't listen... If you carry it on, stick ALL liquids in a 1-qt sized plastic bag. Take it out when you get to security and stick it in a bin by itself. They'll scan it, and give it back to you. No big deal. If you're checking your bags, just let it go...

gonzalesna 1 #6 July 10, 2007 no checking... all carry on. I don't check if I can avoid it... bastards always seem to lose my shit. better yet, anyone flyin' their own aircraft to houston... say... today or tomorrow?

sharimcm 0 #7 July 10, 2007 Quote do they supply quart sized plastic bags? WTF? NO... They don't supply it. Get your happy little ass to the grocery store down the street and buy your own bag... Actually, LA supplied quart sized bags to people. I don't think Phoenix did... Oh wait, I didn't fly to Phoenix... I drove... Sorry.

wmw999 2,600 #8 July 10, 2007 I'm a girl, and all my stuff fits very comfortably into a quart-sized ziploc bag. If you can't fit all your stuff into one, you probably ought to surrender your man card. You can buy some smaller sizes at the drugstore. Then you leave them in the ziploc bag until your next trip.

gonzalesna 1 #9 July 10, 2007 I buy everything as needed... I don't buy travel sized stuff... I'll be going through the airport with shampoo and soap without the actual containers... just liquid in a baggie... Some people refrain from beating a dead horse.

I can't have an individual tube of toothpaste over 4.5 oz (or any other "liquid") but I can carry on a 1 quart (32 oz) ziplock bag that could easily be used to carry several 4.5 oz tubes of... er... whatever... which could easily be mixed together in the 32 oz ziplock bag... er... wait... maybe I should stop talking... just in case there is a TSA rep reading this...

They took my Listerine the last time... It was 4.something... Bastards... OK, get this... They make you dispose of lighters before going through security, BUT, if it's your quart sized baggie, you can take it on. Either that or they thought I was cute and just let me through. And, you can take as many matches as you possibly want to... So, if it's under 4 ounces, and stick it in your quart-sized bag, you're fine. All of my stuff fits... I actually keep one baggie as a 'travel bag' full of 'stuff.' You never know when I might need the KY...
