Toiletries & Liquids

Deodorant, toothpaste, perfume, razors — most verdicts here come down to the 3-1-1 liquids rule and what counts as a blade.

Start hereThe TSA 3-1-1 liquids rule, explained
  1. Can I Bring a Razor on a Plane?

    Carry-on: DependsChecked: Yes

    Disposable, cartridge, and electric razors are fine in carry-on. Safety-razor blades and straight razors are checked-only. All razors OK checked.

  2. Can I bring a safety razor on a plane?

    Carry-on: DependsChecked: Yes

    The razor handle can fly in carry-on but loose blades must be removed and checked; all forms are fine in checked bags.

  3. Can I Bring Deodorant on a Plane?

    Carry-on: DependsChecked: Yes

    Solid/stick deodorant has no carry-on size limit; gel, roll-on and spray forms follow the 3.4 oz liquids rule. All forms fine checked.

  4. Can I Bring Full-Size Toothpaste on a Plane?

    Carry-on: 3.4 ozChecked: Yes

    Toothpaste is a paste, so it’s limited to 3.4 oz (100 ml) in a carry-on; full-size tubes must go in checked, where there’s no limit.

  5. Can I bring hand sanitizer on a plane?

    Carry-on: 3.4 ozChecked: Yes, with caps

    TSA caps hand sanitizer at 3.4 oz in carry-on – the 12-ounce pandemic allowance is gone from TSA guidance. Checked bags carry an FAA quantity cap too, and disinfecting wipes are the workaround.
