Get Packing
The 3-1-1 on travel is in effect for your carry-on luggage.

If you haven't travelled by air in a while and you're planning on bringing only carry-on items,
make sure you're in compliance with new TSA regulations.

When it comes to liquids, you're allowed only 3 ounces or less of a liquid. Liquids includes
anything from drinking water (yes!) to suntan lotion, shampoo, toothpaste or hair gels.

The limit is 3 ounce bottle or less; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger
placed in screening bin.

The one-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3 oz.
container size is a security measure. If you're not sure, play it safe and put all liquids (safely
packed of course) in checked baggage!

Keep the 3-1-1 in mind when you pack. Customize your own packing lists by using this one as a
