  • Bringing alcohol on an airplane is not as simple as you might think. There are some TSA rules and FAA regulations that you definitely need to know about.
    In this video, I break down everything you need to know about bringing alcohol on a plane and answer questions like whether or not it is illegal to drink your own alcohol. I also discuss how to handle bringing in alcohol bottles from duty free shops.

    I asked the flight attendant on Etihad Airways to serve me my own rum i brought on board and she pushed me out the plane in mid air. Totally uncalled for, some people are sooo sensitive

    Ok so how would they know what the the alcohol content is ; for example I want to fill 5 3.4oz containers with 40% vodka , how do I prove it’s not over 70%

    • @UponArriving
      @UponArriving  5 лет назад

      I don't think they could know without taking time to confiscate your bottles which would be unlikely. Maybe they could give them a smell and then investigate if it has a really strong scent that could be over 70%.

    • @zarrsar6372
      @zarrsar6372 4 года назад

      don't drink it unless you know the alcoholic content. Real drinkers know that. You would not drink any fluid unless you know what it is, correct? almost all commercial bottles state the content on the bottle. Besides the rule is there for a reason, if you pack a fluid without knowing its flammability you are putting yourself and others in danger.

    • @prioreofsion
      @prioreofsion 4 года назад +3

      @@zarrsar6372 that's not what the OP asked. The question was, how would they (the TSA) know the alcohol content. The OP would know and the TSA could ask him but the TSA shouldn't take everyone at their word at what the content is. If they did, then what would be the point in having the rule anyway. Therefore, the TSA must have some other independent way of determining alcohol content.

    It would probably be a bad idea to mix a drink in a water bottle or thermos while still in the terminal and consume it while on the flight. For instance, if I had the airport coffee shop fill my yeti, then I add a some Bailey's while no one is looking, then enjoy my flavored coffee on the flight it would probably be wrong on some level to do that. Also, buying a bottle of soda and stealthily adding rum, bourbon, vodka, or schnapps before getting on the plane would be equally wrong. I wouldn't advocate doing any of this.
