Understanding carry shampoo on a plane

Whether you can carry shampoo on a plane depends on how much shampoo you have and where you want to carry it. Here’s a breakdown:

Carrying shampoo in your carry-on baggage:

  • Yes, you can, but only if it meets the 3-1-1 liquids rule:
    • Each shampoo container must be 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less.
    • All containers must fit in a single one-quart (one liter) clear, resealable plastic bag.
    • You can only bring one bag per person.

Carrying shampoo in your checked baggage:

  • Yes, you can carry large bottles of shampoo in your checked baggage. There are no size restrictions for liquids in checked baggage.

Here are some additional tips:

  • It’s always best to double-check your airline’s specific rules about carry-on liquids before you travel. Some airlines may have stricter limits than the TSA.
  • Transfer your shampoo into travel-sized containers to save space and avoid having to worry about the 3-1-1 rule.
  • Pack your shampoo in a leak-proof bag to prevent spills.
  • Consider buying travel-sized toiletries at your destination to avoid lugging them around with you.

I hope this helps! Have a safe and happy trip!

In conclusion, yes, you can carry shampoo on a plane! By understanding the TSA regulations, following smart packing tips, and being aware of exceptions, you can travel confidently with your shampoo in tow. Don’t let the rules cramp your style – with a little preparation, you can keep your hair care routine intact while jetting off to your next adventure. Safe travels!
