I am thinking of using these for travel packing. Is the lid and water-tight seal good enough for checked baggage?

We use them in our lunch boxes for snacks primarily but have put grapes and blueberries in them as well. I wouldn't put any kind of liquid in them, however. We have tried strawberries and pears in them but some "juice" did leak out.

I have never had one leak. We use for lunches. I have taken them on carry on luggage.. I guess a thermos is another possibility.

Yes, while I have never used these for liquids, it does a good job with very juicy fruits. The are a great buy! The lids are airtight and water tight.

Yes it is perfectly leak proof. You don't have to worry about its pose in your bag.

I put them in a ziploc in case they leaked but didn't put them in my liquids bag when going through TSA, had no problems.

The lid on mine seals very tightly. They are definitely "air-tight". I have not tested it in water, but I would assume that yes, they are. Hope that helps :)

They are not airtight. Water will not get in. There is no seal, but the lid overlaps the side by 2 inches. The lid also fits very snug. I have used these for about 5 years now. They are very well made (good materials, heavy duty) hold up to lots of abuse and have a lot of space. I put gear I want to keep dry and safe in it and put it in the bed of my truck. I have traveled many thousand miles with these in my truck bed and never had any issues with water leakage no matter what the weather brings.

I really not sure, however, I have had some for years and seemed always to be fine.Sorry not more help, but I have had no problem. I would keep lid tight and keep dry.

They seem to be pretty air and water tight ... Like with any container, there may be a little leakage, but my lid goes on tight and doesn't move when on. I had to cut holes in my lid for my bread gasses to escape.

Depends on your situation. I have the lock so the contents of my luggage won't spill in the event of a tear. TSA opened my bag up on my last trip which is why it's a requirement for checked luggage to have only TSA approved locks on bags.

I used it for carry-on on an international flight. Just be prepared to open ALL the compartments for inspection.

Yes- I travelled internationally with these locks on my checked bags with no problem

Frankly i have not used them during transportation. There is a lid side slot which would slide in to prevent the lid from opening and its pretty tight. I think they should be fine as the lid closes tight, not sure if all liquids would be contained in it, but thicker ones yes they would be in it ~Rahul

The lid seals pretty tight with a nice fit, but I am unsure if the are water tight. Maybe if your devices were protected in plastic to prevent erosion they may be what you want.

I have to say yes. While I haven't put any liquid in mine, the truly secure way the lids fit would indicate a leak proof seal. The lids will be very tight, almost too tight the first time. I them in warm water to soften and have had an easier time since. Lids are still very tight, but that's how I want them.

It should be okay for it to travel as checked luggage if you have a proper hard case for it.

Yes, checked baggage would be best because the lackeys at TSA are apt to not let something through that they don't know what it is. If you are tacking in your baggage it would be best to take an unopened bottle.

I wasn't really happy with them. Some seemed to be water tight but some of them did leak around the lid. I wouldn't purchase them again. As far as air tight I don't know about that I filled them as I sold product to my customers on the spot.

I fly with 2 of them every week and have not had a problem. But the contents in them is more thick than thin. If I leave them in my checked suitcase I put it in a plastic bag. Overall, no leaks yet!!
