Hi, is this TSA compliant? Meaning can it be taken through airport security without issue when cold?

I purchased this last year and have flown several times. I've had no problem taking it through security with the packs frozen.

Check with TSA, however, going through secrurity with it filled with ice water is probably not going to happen.

I would say no. But I prefer it cold, that is my preference. Some people I know carry it in their purse for convenience and they have no problems with it.

I brought it with me on a cruise without a problem and they have the same restrictions as airplanes (including metal detectors). I would double check any TSF restrictions. Unless they specifically name said pens I wouldn't worry about.

not without some overpackage .... ie would want o have it in a box or larger container. be better off shipping your items in dri Ice - shipped through Fed / UPS or similar ... some airlines would likely accept dri ice as cargo not as baggage in limited amounts

Possibly, But even though the manufacturer claims it's TSA approved - TSA confiscated mine. I even had the original packaging. I contacted the company, but they never replied.

It is highly unlikely the TSA would allow it on a plane. If you put it in a case of some kind and had them put it in checked luggage under the plane then maybe. In the cabin? No way.

No guarantees on this ever since TSA agents in different airport can interpret these rules differently, but I've been able to cruise through without removing it. If the KB is detached your chances are much better.

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.

I don't know if they are TSA compliant, but I do know that they don't last nearly as long as I had expected and if you think the shipping from Europe to US is going to take more than 24 hours I would use dry ice. These are not a good replacement for dry ice for keeping things really cold and for a prolonged period of time.

I don't know how TSA guidelines would really apply as it pertains to flying to be honest. It comes well packages and I would have been comfortable traveling with it. It can be kept out of the fridge fort a time with no significant problems arising as well. As for an exact time, I cannot provide this. I would recommend just having it shopped to your home location

I would think that the restrictions put in place by the TSA would apply. Therefore, I would not attempt to take on an airplane. You will probably have to pump into a smaller container that is TSA approved.

Yes, I had no issues with security....they checked it out and it passed fine! You should have no issues at all!happy travels!

I would call the Airline you are traveling on and ask. I took it through security and didn't have any problem, but things change all the time.

At one airport (Albany, NY), I had no problem getting through security. In fact, the TSA people told me that it was more about the individual airline's policy than TSA policy. However, on the return flight from Texas, TSA pulled the unit from my carry on bag and scrutinized it for a few minutes and then let it through.

I can not see where it would be a problem as long as it was in your luggage and not in a carry on bag. I carry mine in a quart zip lock bag but have not taken it on a flight.

Yep. I've carried this with me many times while travelling. On the TSA site, it says the limit is 3.4oz. While this is 3.5oz, I don't think they'll sweat you over 0.1oz. I've never had an issue.

I believe they are as long as it passes through their security screenings as carry-on baggage. Before going to the airport I suggest that you call your local airport, or better yet the TSA itself as these things vary from state to state.
