Wondering if these count as "liquid" in the TSA-sense - taking up space in the quart Ziploc. Anyone have any thoughts?

No, they would be classified the same as wet wipes. With the individually sealed and labeled packets, you shouldn't have any problems.

I've flown with them domestically and internationally without any problems. I didn't pack them in a ziplock, just tucked in my carry on.

These are simply moist towelettes. There isn't enough liquid to be a problem with TSA. Hope this helps.

I put them in a ziploc in case they leaked but didn't put them in my liquids bag when going through TSA, had no problems.

Cwll the airline you're traveling on--other than that I have no ideas. UNLESS you mail it to your destination.

I think so. It has an Accessory Port that it says attaches to the Accessory and it's a jar (probably plastic) with a lid. It isn't really clear about freezing liquids although I think they have to be freezed in the bags. It has a website that can probably give you more information. seal-a-meal.com Hopefully that will answer your question. Sorry I couldn't be any more help.

Unfortunately, I don't think so. The bag dimensions listed are 3.8 x 6 X 9.5 = 216.6 cubic inches which equals 3.75 quarts. The TSA regulations are a 1 quart bag. I would check out the Flybags - TSA Compliant Toiletry Bag.

No. That's why I use a gallon bag to store them. It's a store-brand Ziploc equivalent and holds up to 66 (three boxes worth) and takes up less space than the original box or the silly dispenser sold with some. I just checked them against a quart-size bag. You could fit maybe half a box in one, if bag size is an issue. But no, they are not individually wrapped or anything like that.

I've done it before without problems. Well, yes, but the only problem was I froze the whole bag (90-ish % full) and it didn't melt in my pack until I got home from a day hike. In the future I'll freeze only 50% full and top off with cold water before I leave. :-)

I would think so, yes. However, they are very lightweight, so when it is open a liquid could easily get bumped and spilled. Also, since it is a liquid, I would suggest putting whatever you store in a Ziploc as a backup. I don't expect it would leak (it seems like a good seal), but I do this anytime when I travel with shampoos, lotions, etc., just in case.

yes, I have gone through security at several US airports with the cooler, blue ice packs, and third party sealed ice bags with no problem. You don't even have to open the cooler, but I do take it out of my bag for a separate scan. Only once did they lead me aside to the explosive detection machine and put my (full) milk bags in, but they didn't bother with the ice packs.I suspect TSA sees several of these a day and knows what to expect.

TSA requirements are for a 1 quart ziploc bag, which is fairly close to the size of the bag these come in. I'd say you could get maybe a half dozen bottles or less into a quart bag. I usually take around 5: mouthwash, conditioner (shampoo is dry), lotion, toothpaste, and make-up remover.

I have had some leaks when liquids were in them and they were shaken upside down. IMO, I'd not take them in a backpack unless closed in a ziploc.

The ziploc bags are not air tight. They have a zipper around the top so should stay shut but also have a narrow mesh around the top and are not vacuum sealed.

Mine worked fine twice so far. I had 3 in a large bag and then packed some other clothes I them for storage in a wall locker. 2 didn't make it however. There are large cuts in them. I couldn't tell if the were from something in the bag with them or TSA's rough handling of my luggage. Either way they work as a any times as you need them so long as you're not too rough with them. If they're just being used for storage in a closet they'd probably last a very long time. You also can just roll the air out of them if you do not have a vacuum.

I'm 99% sure that you can take liquids under 100ml. I know that a certain amount is allowed and I'm pretty sure it's 100ml! I would check the airline's travel guidelines just in case, but I'm pretty sure you should be fine with this. :)

The lids are actually almost a too snug, so it's doubtful the contents would spill during transit. But they may vary from one set to the next, so you would probably want to use a bit of scotch tape just to be sure.

Yes. They are so sturdy I have used with and without a tip. So much better than the ziploc bag method! Hope this helps.

It seems as though your numbers are lower than what I see. James comment about your altitude is important, but so is what you are trying to bag. If you are trying to bag some food that is hot (or even warm), it can reach "boiling" before you get to the level of vacuum you desire. Ideally any food being bagged should be cold to prevent this from happening.

No. No liquids allowed. Better bet would be to have it shipped to your destination.

Yes if there is no lighter fluid in them. Not sure about quantity. Might check TSA rules before your purchase.
