hey there today I am sharing how to
travel with medications on an airplane
traveling with medications can be
confusing because there are so many
rules for going through security with
your carry-on bag or your carry-on
suitcase all ages have to travel with
medications some of you are diabetic and
how to travel with liquids or
how to pack your liquids so I'm gonna
walk you through how to travel with
those liquids according to the TSA 3.4
ounces rule and how to pack and store
those as you're going through security
what do you do in the security line with
your liquid medications what you do if
those liquids do not fit in your liquids
bag do you have to have a prescription
with those liquid medicines that you're
traveling with hopefully I will answer
these questions or lead you to the
source for your answers in my video on
how to travel with medications the
number one method to traveling with
medications is to always have them in
your travel bag that will go under your
airplane seat or in the overhead bin now
when you're traveling with a duffel bag
or a backpack or your handbag those are
the items that I'm talking about they're
gonna go on your person into the
airplane if they run out of overhead
space and no one has any space in the
airplane there is no way that that
little bag is going to be checked in the
belly of the airplane last minute your
suitcase always has a chance of being
checked last minute when you get to the
gate because they've run out of space so
I'm talking about traveling with this
kind of bag onto the airplane and I'm
putting it under your seat or in the
overhead bin of their space nowadays it
seems like they are running out of space
for these carry-on suitcases to go in
the overhead bins so last minute before
you board the airplane the gate agents
are saying we have no room folks I'm
sorry we've got three more lines of
people to board the airplane we're going
to have to start checking your suitcases
last minute you don't have time and you
don't want to weigh
the time of the people behind you by
looking in your carry-on suitcase for
those liquid medications that you might
need or your pills that you might need
so keep them in a backpack or your
duffel bag or your carry-on little bag
that will not get checked in the tooth
the belly of the airplane the number two
method of traveling with medications is
to check the TSA gov website it is chock
full of information and I love that they
let you ask a specific question about
your medication or your disability with
an agent I recommend watching this video
on a laptop because some of the pictures
I'm going to show you about the
responses I got from the TSA agent
they're really small to see if you're
watching me on a phone if you do go to
the TSA gov website you have to click
several times and I think it's easier
doing it another way but if you're at
the tsa.gov site you just click in the
top right corner where it says contact
and then you click in the bottom left
where it says customer care and then in
the bottom right you can either call
them or you can tweet or Facebook them a
question and the facebook question is
going to go in your messages section
that's what I recommend doing I
recommend skipping whole website if you
have to ask a question now the website
is great for giving you guidelines and
looking for what you can bring and stuff
like that I made a video on 29 items you
cannot bring through security if you
want to watch that you can click on the
iCard at any time through the video but
if you want to ask a question I
recommend just going to your Facebook
page and in the top blue rectangle or
rectangle area where you can search for
something right ask TSA and that will
take you to not the TSA Facebook page
but the ask TSA Facebook page and hit
send message or ask message that's where
you are going to be able to ask your
question one thing I found out by asking
a TSA agent question in my facebook
Messenger is that they do not check
labels anymore when you do send a
message to the TSA agents give them 20
four to forty eight hours to reply to
your question the number three method of
traveling with liquid medications is
that they do not have to go in your
regular quart sized required liquids bag
that will hold your eye makeup remover
two front toothpaste shampoo your liquid
medications can go in their own bag and
I asked the TSA agent another question
and since so if I am bringing like a six
point eight ounce bottle of robitussin
or children's Tylenol I don't mean I
don't need to have it in the box that
came in I don't have to have it in the
bag that it came in they said it is fine
they do not check that anymore so that
is fantastic but don't be fooled because
if you try to get a regular-sized bottle
of shampoo through airport security even
if it only has two ounces of shampoo in
it it will be confiscated because it is
not a medication it is shampoo
