You can pack alcohol in your checked luggage on domestic flights. For international flights, you are subject to the laws and regulations of both the departing and arriving countries. Some countries, like Saudi Arabia, forbid alcohol, and it is illegal to bring any alcohol in any quantity, in any way, into the country. Most countries, such as the USA, have restrictions on how much alcohol you are permitted to bring into the country duty free, or at all. Some countries, like Canada, require you to posses an import license to bring in alcohol in larger quantities.

In terms of alcohol in your carry-on bags, the overriding concern tends not to be that it is alcohol, but that it is a liquid. You may not carry any bottle or container of liquid on to a commercial flight that holds more than 100 ml, or 3.4 ounces of liquid, except:

  • the bottle was purchased in the security zone of the airport you are departing from;
  • the liquid is baby formula, milk, or juice for an infant and you are traveling with an infant; or
  • the liquid is a prescription medication and the the name of the patient on the prescription label matches the name of the traveler.

Additionally, some alcohol (specifically anything with an alcohol content of 70% or more by volume) qualifies as a flammable liquid and is prohibited. This would include 95% grain alcohol (Everclear) and 151 proof rum. For alcohol that is at least 24% and less than 70% by volume, you may check up to 5 liters in the original, unopened retail packaging. Alcohol containing less than 24% is not regulated.

It depends on where and how you bring the alcohol on the plane. The FAA has specific rules about carrying alcohol on airplanes.

Different airlines have different rules that may be stricter than the FAA's regulations, however. For instance, if flying on Southwest Airlines, you will be restricted to the following rules: See related links Southwest Air

Always check with your airline before bringing alcohol on a plane. Generally, alcohol, if packaged originally, will be allowed in checked baggage, but it is not usually allowed in carry-on luggage.
