Can I take the vial of disinfection gel on board

Vials of disinfection gel can be taken on board the aircraft, but it must meet the requirements of the Civil Aviation administration on the capacity limit of liquid goods. The main restrictions include a single bottle capacity of no more than 100 milliliters, a total volume of no more than 1000 milliliters for all liquid items, and the need to be packed in transparent sealed bags for security checks.

1. Capacity limit:

According to the civil aviation regulations, a single bottle of liquid container shall not exceed 100ml, and the marked capacity of the sterilized gel bottle body shall be ≤ 100ml. The actual residual amount does not affect the judgment, and the packaging mark shall prevail. It is recommended to choose travel equipment specifications to avoid confiscation due to excessive quantity.

2. Total quantity control:

The total capacity of all liquid items carried with you must be ≤ 1000 milliliters. Including disinfection gel, cosmetics, toothpaste and other liquid items, they need to be consolidated. Excess items can be checked in or reduced in quantity.

3. Packaging requirements:

Liquid items must be packed in a 20 x 20 cm transparent sealable plastic bag, with a limit of 1 bag per person. During security checks, it is necessary to take it out separately for inspection. Failure to pack it according to regulations may result in the need to reorganize or discard it.

4. Ingredient safety:

Disinfection gel with alcohol concentration>70% is prohibited to carry and consign. It is recommended to choose non-alcoholic disinfectant products such as benzalkonium chloride, and the packaging should have a complete ingredient description label.

5. Special routes:

Some international routes have additional restrictions on disinfectants, such as the Middle East region may prohibit the entry of alcoholic products. It is recommended to check the destination customs regulations in advance or use disinfectant wipes instead. When boarding, you can prepare individually packaged disinfectant wipes as a backup solution, which are not limited by liquids and can clean your hands at any time. Choose gel containing moisturizing ingredients such as aloe to avoid dry skin caused by frequent use. Pay attention to timely reapply during the journey. For long-distance flights, it is recommended to carry a single pack of alcohol swabs to wipe high-frequency contact areas such as small table boards. When accompanying infants and young children, special non irritating disinfectant products can be prepared to avoid skin allergies. During the epidemic, some airports provide free disinfectant supply points, which can reduce the amount of carry on.
