Does deodorant need to be in a 311 bag?

Travel Tip: Solid Deodorants and the 3-1-1 Rule

Navigating airport security with toiletries can be confusing, especially when it comes to the 3-1-1 rule. This rule limits liquids, aerosols, gels, creams, and pastes to containers of 3.4 ounces or less and requires them to be packed in a clear quart-sized bag.

However, not all toiletries are subject to this rule. Solid deodorants, for example, are exempt. This means that you can pack them in your carry-on without worrying about fitting them into the quart-sized bag.

Packing Solid Deodorants

To pack solid deodorants for air travel, simply place them outside the quart-sized bag in your carry-on. They do not need to be placed in a separate bag or container.

Other Tips for Travel

• Check with your airline for any specific restrictions or prohibited items.
• Pack liquids and gels in clear containers of 3.4 ounces or less.
• If you have any liquids or gels larger than 3.4 ounces, pack them in your checked baggage.
• Keep all toiletries organized and easily accessible for security screening.

By following these tips, you can ensure a smooth and stress-free airport screening experience.
