Get a metal flask, standard size. Fill it up with your liquor of choice. A full 6oz, all the way to the top, leave no air in the flask. I've never been stopped by TSA in ATL, MCO, JFK, LGA, EWR, IAD, etc. Always managed to get to my destination with it in my carry-on. Though, thankfully, I mostly fly in the afternoon so I don't need to use it.

I know this does not help but ATL has the best rules..
they are a “private club” so as long as the club is open the booze flows.
8:30 AM for the rest of the airport in ATL

I think that's exactly it. Like in Manhattan you cannot have an alcoholic drink with brunch on Sundays until 12pm.

I've been curious before on some of my early flights, but never sat up front or paid attention. Are PDBs exempt from local liquor laws re: timing? Other posters have mentioned that establishments in JFK can't serve liquor prior to 8am, but can DL serve alcoholic PDBs before then?
