I have also done alot of travel and have never been questioned when I brought wine back. It does sound like the agents were misquoting the 5liter rule.

Sorry I coudln't respond earlier. I had a hard time getting on this site yesterday.

Hi kmk-- Thanks for responding. Is it possible that DL has some sort of written policy about wine that may be of use here? Sometimes, the rules are there but not all check-in agents know about them. Thanks for your help with this.
