Hi, I have a question for experienced travelers. Is it okay to bring popcorn in my hand luggage from an outside store, or will I be required to buy it from the airport in order to bring it?
I’m thinking of bringing a brand that’s exclusive to locals as a gift for my visit.
Certainly! Solid food items (excluding liquids or gels) are permissible in either your carry-on or checked bags. However, liquid or gel food items exceeding 3.4 Oz are not permitted in carry-on bags and should ideally be placed in your checked bags.
Just eat them before going through security. That’s what I usually do.
I travel all the time and bring snacks in my carry-on all the time. Just make sure it’s unopened and commercially packaged [like the kind you’d find in a store]. Security at the airport is more concerned about liquids and gels than popcorn.
Yes, you should not have any problems if you bring food that you plan to eat on the aircraft.
Solid food can be carried on a plane, either carry-on checked bags, but again it is not necessary to carry food on a plane.
hallo traveller Yes, you can bring food on a plane, but there are some restrictions depending on the type of food and whether it’s in your carry-on or checked luggage.
Yes, you can bring popcorn in your hand luggage from an outside store, and you do not need to buy it from the airport. TSA regulations allow solid food items to be transported in carry-on bags, so you should have no trouble bringing your local brand of popcorn as a gift.
I remember a time when I brought a local specialty snack for a friend during a trip. I was worried about whether it would be allowed through security, but I packed it carefully and checked the guidelines beforehand. When I went through security, I felt a bit anxious, but it went smoothly, and I was relieved when the TSA agent waved me through without any issues. The joy on my friend’s face when they received the gift made it all worthwhile. So, pack your popcorn and enjoy your visit!
There is no “outside food” rule. You can bring food through security as long as it isn’t liquid.
If you are travelling internationally, make sure to eat whatever fruits or meats you have before you leave.
You’ll be alright, I brought an entire Domino’s pizza past security.
It’s advisable to check with the airline or TSA guidelines for any specific regulations or restrictions before packing food items for your flight.
