Wine question


Recommended Posts

Anyone know if you can bring individual wine boxes (tetra paks) on board in carry on luggage? Similar to the Bandit wine in the attached article https://www.pastemagazine.com/blogs/lists/2015/01/6-best-boxed-wines-welcome-to-the-boxed-wine-revolution.html

 

We are flying and I don't want to chance a bottle breaking in the checked luggage.

 

Anyone know?

That's the official policy but the chances of them finding and then taking them are quite small (they don't look like bottle of booze on xray).

 

Biker, who defaulted to those packs before making Diamond and was never denied.

Two 750ml bottles only. No boxed wine at all.

I know this won't help the OP but I've had no problems bringing a 4 pack or two on Anthem through Security, small bottles of wine, each 4 pack equal 750 ml. I know it's cheap wine, but not much of a drinker and I do get free drinks in the casino anyway.

Last week, we brought 6 small tetra packs (3 white, 3 red) no problem at all!

 

Each small tetra pack was 3 glasses of wine

 

Thank you. It was very kind of you to return and update the board. :)

Quick question, Royal currently doesn't apply the $15 corkage fee when you go through the scanner at time of boarding, correct? Only if you actually bring the wine bottle to MDR or specialty restaurant.

On a lighter note when I was at the airport here once I had my tube of tooth paste confiscated. The guy showed me the ruling that " any container of containing 100 gram or more is not allowed". I told him there is less than half of the 100 gram left in the container. They can see the bathroom pouch in the xray screen and he went straight for that when he open my bag. The irony is that I had a second tooth paste tube in the pouch and the guy miss out on this.

I don't know for how long they have been available but I only buy the 99gr (3.5 oz) sizes.:D

That sounds very clever, and I don't want to get into a debate about the TSA (or any other country's equivalent body) and their ability to keep us safe, but there is a reason that you can't take a container that is partially full.

 

It has to do with capacity to combine ingredients. I'm no expert in *bad stuff*, but they don't want you to have two bad ingredients and the ability to put them together into one container, when the combination can go "boom". :eek:
