I have researched some of the things you can have in your carry on bags on the domestic flights. This is subject to change without notice and this list was posted on Tuesday, September 26, 2006.

1. You can carry 3 oz of liquids, gels and aerosols. No half-filled containers are allowed. For example, eye drops, liquid soaps, shampoo, conditioner, hair spray, liquid foundation, nail polish and nail remover, etc.

2. Solid cosmetic items are allowed such as lipstick, lip balm, deodorant, etc.

3. These examples used to be banned and now they are allowed. Cigar cutters, corkscrews, cuticle cutters, eye glass repair kit, eyelash curler, knitting crochet needles, nail clippers, nail files, disposable razors, safety razors, scissors with a blunt tip, and tweezers.

4. Some odd things that are allowed are toy transformer robots, replica toy weapons, umbrella (after it has been inspected for anything being hidden inside of it), and walking canes.

5. Electronics are allowed aboard. They are: camcorders, laptops, mobile phone, pagers, and PDA. It is advised that you do not have film inside of camcorder or cameras. This source said nothing about allowing cameras on board.

6. Tools are allowed in carry on baggage. screwdrivers, wrenches and pliers (must be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage and baggage handlers) must all be 7 inches or shorter.

7. Passengers may bring aboard 3oz beverages from home or buy after the screening process.

8. Canned or jarred goods in 3 oz sizes such as soups, sauces, peanut butter, fruits, vegetables and jellies, cheese in pressurized containers, etc.

9. Passengers can also bring gel based sports supplements, jello, pudding, whipped cream, yogurt, etc. in 3 oz sizes.

10. Non-flammable liquid, gel or aerosol paint in 3 oz sizes are allowed.

It is always good to check with your airline if you have questions about what you can bring on board. If in doubt, put it in your luggage or mail it to your destination.
