Juice Boxes through Security?

[RysMomma]

Hey everyone,

Just wondering, can you take juice boxes through security at the airport? I tend to feel that you can't, but my SIL thinks you can. Any thoughts?

Gotta be under 3.4 oz.

Gotta be under 3.4 oz.

And fit into a single quart "zip loc type bag - one bag oer passenger.

Yes you can... well, sort of. If you are traveling with a toddler, they will allow you to carry "a reasonable" amount of juice and/or milk. The reasonable amount thing is the kicker, it isn't specific. So you cant bring an entire case for a 1hr flight, etc. You have to declare that you have it and pull it out of the bag, you will be pulled aside by security and they do this weird swab test thing to it. Then you can go. We brought juice boxes (usually one or two) on flights from when my daughter was age 2-4. Now we pack a few koolaid powders and an empty water bottle and just fill it up after security.

Don't count on being allowed to take juice boxes through security. I have heard of TSA confiscating these. The liquid exception is for infants or liquids which are medically necessary. Buy what you need after security.
