Hi, iam Bennie Arroyo, Have a Rock-and-Roll Day!
Ah, the quart size bag rule - it’s a real pain in the neck! But don’t worry, I’m here to help you make sense of it all. You see, this rule requires that all liquids and gels you bring on board an airplane must be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and fit into a single quart-sized bag. That means no more than one bag per person! So if you’re planning on flying with your favorite shampoo or lotion, make sure it’s in a container that fits the bill - otherwise you’ll be stuck at security. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s get ready for takeoff!
How Strict Is The Quart-Size Bag Rule? [Solved]
Yeah, the TSA’s not too fussy about quart-sized bags. As long as it’s close to a quart, you’re good to go. No need to worry!
Carry-on Baggage Size Limit: All carry-on bags must fit within the maximum size limit of 9 inches x 14 inches x 22 inches (22 cm x 35 cm x 56 cm), including any handles and wheels.
Quart-Sized Bag Requirement: All liquids, gels, aerosols, creams and pastes must be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and all containers must fit into a single quart-sized bag.
Exceptions to the Rule: Medications, baby formula/food and breast milk are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and do not need to be placed in a quart-sized bag; however they are still subject to additional screening at the security checkpoint.
Security Screening Process: All liquids, gels, aerosols, creams and pastes will be screened separately from other carry-on baggage at the security checkpoint; travelers may also be asked to open their quart-sized bag for additional inspection if necessary.
The quart size bag rule is a regulation that states that when you’re flying, all liquids and gels must be in containers of 3.4 ounces or less and all of those containers must fit into a single quart-sized bag. So if you want to bring your shampoo, lotion, toothpaste, etc., they have to be in small enough containers to fit into one quart-sized bag. Got it? Cool!
