I bought a bottle of vodka as a gift to a Canadian friend and put it in my rollaboard, which I carried on. I thought I'd cushioned it pretty well -- wrapped in tissue and a skirt (!) and embedded in the middle of the case between several layers of clothing. Figured even if it opened or broke, it wouldn't stain.
Somehow it did get broken, possibly when my burly seatmate heaved it into the overhead. Fortunately, it didn't shatter - just a simple break - so the glass wasn't all over the place. And most of the clothing survived with an airing out to keep me from smelling like an infirmary. HOWEVER, the colors on a paisley print silk scarf ran like FloJo onto a white silk blouse and the effect, while very artistic, just wouldn't work for a business meeting.

I normally buy those bottles of chinese licquor with dead snakes and lizards in that you can get in Hong supermarkets and have had no problems.
And that is carrying a dead animal as well as licquor in your bag...
I have always wondered what they would make of those if you were pulled over.
