Packed and ready to go
No checked bags for me. My case of 144 disposal pre-pasted Ortho toothbrushes arrived fed-ex yesterday, and I have brought the old shaving soap and brush out of retirement. The hotel has shampoo and I can do without the rest.
One must really wonder why a size limit would not work better than all of this. Why not limit liquids and gels to an ounce or two in size or less. |

Excellent. Pax who are comitted to continuing their carrying-on ways are facing increasing challenges. Let us know if "pre-pasted" raises any red flags. Have a good one! |
Make sure you tell us how things work out! I want to know if they give you a hard time for your toothbrushes.

Well done! Another alternative to toothpaste is tooth powder. Here is a selection.

Especially with the allowance for solid deodorant and (I think) Chapstick-type semi-solid lip balm, there are viable alternatives for many of the restricted items.
The two I still can't find a way around: 1) Drinking water (there is simply no substitute) 2) Eye drops (Although the 4 oz. rule may allow a small bottle of eyedrops) |
No problems
Through security and in the club room. TSA opened my toiletry kit and did not even pull out the pre-pasted toothbrush. From my observation, the toothbrush looks dry, and you would not even know it was pre-pasted.
I definitely recommend this option, because for male passengers, with solid deoderant, shaving soap or electric razor, and no need for makeup, carry-ons become no problem again. |
Btw
the cost of the 144 pre-pasted toothbrushes was $12.95 plus tax and shipping (it cost as much to ship as to buy with overnight delivery saturday).
