Is ice pack allowed to be checked in for flight?

I have been permitted to carry it in on flights. I followed advice I read somewhere to freeze it as solid as possible first. I don't know whether that made a difference. In any event as long as you declare it, meaning you tell the officers as you're going through security that you have it and any other liquids, they should be able to swab it and let you through. No guaranties, but I've never had a problem. Sending it with your checked luggage wouldn't be a problem. Good luck!

yes! I carried it on many times when traveling. I traveled with this in a small bag (the Medela one) with bottles of milk and it was fine to bring it on the plane. They did some test to the outside of the bottles, but it didn't do anything to the milk and was allowed.

It can be checked in for a flight and, if frozen, can be carried through security for carryon as long as it is with the pump.

I flew across county with my pump! In California, they checked my pump in inspections probably to see what it was after the x-ray. Didn't have any problems though.

I cant say for sure, but I know that I would not try to bring it on a flight. Look on the TSA website - they have a page of confiscated items.

yes, I have gone through security at several US airports with the cooler, blue ice packs, and third party sealed ice bags with no problem. You don't even have to open the cooler, but I do take it out of my bag for a separate scan. Only once did they lead me aside to the explosive detection machine and put my (full) milk bags in, but they didn't bother with the ice packs.I suspect TSA sees several of these a day and knows what to expect.

It should. There are two pockets on this bag. One for the ice pack and the other for whatever you need to be kept in 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.

No...no ice pack so I called n they gave me the answer that it is refrigerated until shipped...but I live in the desert ...Also sat in my outside mailbox for a day....bottom line its better if u buy at store...

Check tsa.gov website for specific regulations. I believe it's ok as long as the lunchbox is frozen, not a thawed liquid state. Hope this info helps. :)

Yes, it can be brought to the gate. Just be sure to fold it up completely just before you get on the plane. It absolutely does not need to be checked.

easily for a few hours, a flight would be a breeze to keep it chilled - but remember with FAA rules you cannot bring beverages on board- but for medicines or baby'smilk, etc youd be fine. We absolutely love it- take it on car trips a lot and the beach and it stays cold for a long time- ice packs also hold well inside if you know there will be a long period of time it wont be plugged in. We also bought a $30 converter with it that you can plug into a regular outlet a lot of planes have plugs nowadays too. So, if it is for medicine if you cal lthe airlines theyd find a seat for you that has an outlet too- enjoy! easily for a few hours, a flight would be a breeze to keep it chilled - but remember with FAA rules you cannot bring beverages on board- but for medicines or baby'smilk, etc youd be fine.

Yes but I guess it will depend on what you will be putting in it. If it's really full, they might ask you to check it. It depends on how full it is and also the airliner. It should be fine.

I used to work for TSA. This is a prohibited item and cannot be taken aboard or packed in your checked luggage. If found, it will be confiscated and destroyed.

Well I got it for my mom so I just have no idea if she will travel with it but the bag has nothing inside except a big sponge to hold the ice pack but I think it is ok as long as the patient has a prove that he is diabetic.

No, I have not. IF the TSA is diligent enough to find it, they will probably keep it just 'cause...but if it is in carry-on and going thru x-ray, I would make sure it is oriented to "obviously" be a spork and NOT oriented to look like a slim piece of metal. Don't bury it in your bag in case there's a question(outside pocket of ur pack and handy (in case they want to inspect)...OR...completely bury next to any other metal in your pack so they can't differentiate it from other metals. If it's checked luggage, it won't matter.

Dear Charum san, Thank you for your inquiry. We are afraid we can not put an ice pack or dry ice with item because it is prohibited by aviation law. However even if the chocolate melt on the way, it should be OK if you chill in the fridge for a couple of hours before eating.

Yes, it is recommended that you keep it refrigerated. Maybe you can travel with it on ice.

You should be able to. It has a small battery in it and as long as it's in carry on there shouldn't be a problem. You could call the airline to be sure.

Yes. There is no issue with packing it in the checkin, as long as it is properly wrapped. However, I would recommend taking it in the carry on, to be sure. But, it's entirely up to you how to pack and carry it.
