Other North & South America Frequent Flyer Programs - TAM Carry on Luggage in Brazil

Are all internal flights in Brazil subject to the 100ml liquid rule?

I don't believe so - certainly the one I took earlier this month didn't seem to be (I was asked about liquids at check-in, but when the agent figured out I was not connecting to an international flight, and just taking a domestic flight she said it didn't matter). Someone else with more knowledge might correct me

From the English version of the TAM website:

TAM follows the standards and the rules established by IATA to accept articles as checked baggage or even in the passenger's cabin, within limited quantities, provided that they are duly packed and wrapped in plastic and, in some case, declared to TAM.

I never had such issues when flying domestic in Brazil and I took several domestic flights inside Brazil in September.

Rgs,

Thanks for the replies! Hand luggage it is then!

It depends on your luck. More than 100ml is not allowed. Also hand luggage weight is limited to 5 kilos. I recently had some issues about this. BUT sometimes it apply and sometimes they don't even ask.

I haven't flown TAM domestically in a while, but from what my family in Brazil tells me, they have become real Nazis about the 5 Kg limit on the carry ons.
My mom told me they weight your bag before boarding on some occasions.
I guess I will find out in Feb on my GIG - BEL trip :rolleyes:
