TSA Approved Travel Containers - Fly Through Security With TSA Approved Containers

TSA approved travel containers

If you have ever been delayed through airport security, you know that having the right travel containers can really help you breeze through security. As regulations in the airline industry have continued to tighten, it has made finding the right approved travel containers even more important. Before you buy new toiletry containers, become acquainted with the current TSA regulations.

According to the TSA each airline passenger is allowed to carry on:

One-quart zip-top bag 

Containing 3.4 ounce (100ml) bottles or less (by volume)

Considering these regulations, there are a few ways you can go about finding the right TSA approved travel containers for your trip.

Buy small pre-filled TSA approved containers

Inexpensive - many quality brands come in sample size for right around $1 each

Can be inflexible - you might not be able to find your favorite brands

Hard to refill - many of these containers have tiny openings making them difficult to reuse

Buy empty travel containers

Flexible - fill with your desired product. This is great if you like a specific brand of toiletry item that is hard to find in sample size.

Expensive - some TSA approved travel containers can be expensive, especially if they are intended to be reused.

Reusable -many of these containers are designed to be easy to reused with large openings and easy to clean materials. This can help offset some of the costs associated with reusable containers.

If you decide to go with purchasing empty containers, think about what they should be made out of. Cheap plastic containers can be prone to cracking. Silicone or rubber containers, while slightly more costly, can be much more durable and easy to refill for future use.

GoGear Containers are my personal favorite. They come in various colors and are made of durable silicone. They have wide screw top openings for easy refilling and have leak resistant caps. Their flexible material makes for easy packing as they are able to fit into odd spaces. GoGear Containers are available in 1.25 ounce, 2 ounce, and 3 ounce sizes-all of which meet TSA's requirements for airline use.

Whatever type of container you choose, make sure that they abide by the 3.4 ounce rule and are placed in a clear quart size zip-top bag. If you follow these rules regarding TSA approved travel containers, you should be through security in no time!
