Full size Oust aerosol spray in carry on?

[TWyn]

Would I be allowed to carry a full size can of Oust deodorizer aerosol spray in my carry on? I want to spray our room down good once we arrive and don't want to wait for my luggage to arrive do so. If it might cause a big hassle in security, I'll skip bringing it. I didn't know if this would be considered an actual liquid or not.

no

That's what I was thinking but I wanted to make sure. Thank you.

If you can:

Spray it
Splash it
Spill it
Pour it
Spread it
Drink it

It's considered a liquid.

Oust is a sprayable...therefore considered a liquid.

That's a good rule of thumb to follow. I'll remember that. I'm going to try and find a travel size can of Lysol or Oust, so I can carry it in a Ziploc for security. That should do me until my luggage arrives with my full size Oust.

Don't they make Lysol wipes? If you had that, you could at least wipe down handles, knobs, & surfaces.

That's a good idea! I'm sure that's where a lot of germs would be lurking anyway. I'll pick up some of those as well.

And Lysol (or similar) wipes would not need to go in the 3-1-1 bag, since they are primarily wipes and are dampened with some substance (don't start, Carol ). They'd fall in the category of the mustard on your corned beef sandwich.

I like this idea as well. And it'd definitely be easy to pack in my carry on.

I did see the travel size at Target.
Can I ask if the aerosol is safe in the checked luggage? Meaning does it arrive intack without incident, I would like to take a full size can in my checked luggage.

Most airlines allow aerosols of "personal care" products, such as hairspray, deodorant or sunscreen, but do not allow "household" products, such as disinfectants, air freshners or starch, in checked luggage. You should look into your airline's checked baggage policies to be sure, but that's usually how it works.

Nah, it's gotta have horseradish!

 

[kaytieeldr]

Horseradish? Eewwww? Horseradish goes on ROAST beef!

Eewwww? nuthin. . .horseradish goes on everything beef!

A cleaning product aerosol in your carry-on is touchy. If you don't mind losing it, I'd say pack it, but it very well might not be there when you get to MCO. I'd pack Lysol/Clorox wipes as a backup.

And make sure you clean the TV remote BEST! That is the hotel room item that has the most germ contamination. It's the FIRST thing I do when I get to my hotel rooms.

so wipes are acceptable? Good, I don't have to make my own thread now asking if my baby wipes and wet wipes are ok to take in my carry-on

Actually, it's not an airline rule, it's an FAA rule designed to keep the number of flammable substances in the cargo hold to a minimum. http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org...media/MaterialsCarriedByPassengersAndCrew.pdf


A good rule of thumb for aerosols is that if it is designed to be applied to the human body, you can normally take it in your checked baggage, but if it is not designed to be applied to the human body, then you cannot.

I had no idea I shouldn't even put Lysol or Oust in my checked luggage. I'll be leaving it home and resorting to the wipes. I'm glad I checked here first. DISers are so helpful and have great info.
