April 1999 was the last time we've flown for a Winter Vacation. I'm clueless about how to pack my much-needed sunscreen. Since my brush with skin cancer in 2002, I cannot travel without sunblock. What are the quantities allowed on an airplane, and how do I carry liquids onboard? . . . asked in an email from Sarah in Hingham, MA
Sarah, when's your trip? If you haven't been able to find the 3 oz (or less) travel bottles, check out www.sundition.com. You'll find they currently have the recommended size, in an affordable price.
You asked what is allowed for airline travel, I found this great information at www.wikihow.com:
Original, travel sized-items must not exceed 3 ozs (85g or 90ml) -- such as those found in hotels, restrooms, gift baskets, etc.
All the bottles must fit comfortably in a quart-sized (or less) zip top bag
Unless instructed to do otherwise at zirport screening, place the zip top bag on the x-ray scanner, along with laptops, cellphones, ipods, etc. Return the zip top bag to your carry-on bag at the other end of the scanner.
Have a great vacation Sarah.
