ACMESkydiver 0 #1 May 4, 2007 Not a lot...but a few of those small bottles because I don't want to pay the ridiculous fees for the hotel mini bar. I DID search Delta's website...they have NOTHING about restricted items for checked luggage. Please somebody point me to where I can know for sure? THANKY!!!

BelskyBlueEyes 0 #4 May 4, 2007 I have done that, especially if you transfer it into a plastic bottle. Put it in a ziploc too just in case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SBS 0 #7 May 4, 2007 Oh, unless you are going international...in which case there is a limit to the amount. Wine is 2 bottles in most cases, to my knowledge._____________ I'm not conceited...I'm just realistic about my awesomeness... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildfan75 1 #9 May 4, 2007 You can always do what my friends and I did for our cruise. 1 liter of votka fits perfectly into a 1 liter 7-up bottle (imagine that) and looks like 7-up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumpster 0 #12 May 4, 2007 I do it all the time. Used to bring a bottle on board with me until the TSA started with thier antics. Figgered if I couldn't jump it I might as well drink! (Cinco de Mayo party idea - Fill a pinata with condoms and little bottles of takillya !!) Let the fun begin!! Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't quote me on that though. -I thought of that; but we have to have something to drink as soon as we get to our room! I am just bringing about 4 of those individual little bottles of whiskey and cognac. I don't want to wander around looking for a liquor store until later. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

RALFFERS 0 #19 May 5, 2007 Every time I flew out to Poland (once, twice a year, for the last 7 years) I always had considerible amounts of alcohol both ways, plus beer in my carry-on and never had a problem. by considerable amount I mean 2-3, 1 liter bottles of vodka or whatever. Of course, this is pre terrorist era. Still, if it's in your luggage I don't see it being a problem. If you want something and need to be sure you can have it on the plane just buy it at the duty free store; it's cheaper anyway because you don't pay sales tax on it Have a good flight Mrs. Bugs Dialogue/commentary between Divot, Twardo & myself - "from your first Oshkosh when the three of us were riding to or from one of Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After your bags have been x-rayed and found not to be carrying anything lethal, why should they be allowed to get their hand inside for ANY reason? How dare they insist you not lock your stuff? It's nobody's business what you're carrying. Perhaps a few well-placed mousetraps might make for some interesting moments... Cheers, Jon S.

As for alcohol under 70 percent, you may take up to five liters per person in your checked luggage if it’s packaged in a sealable bottle or flask. I think above 140 proof is considered a flammable liquid which isn't something to take lightly for air travel. --Head-- Turn off the internet!
