Travel-sized Lysol spray (28 g)
 

Silly question, but I'm curious if anyone has succesfully taken it in their carry-on ziplock bag for liquids? (28 grams is about 1 oz)

If they don't allow it, they just pitch it, is that right? Or should I not even bother to try?

I haven't seen a trial size of Lysol, but if you want it for a disinfectant, you can buy individually-wrapped wipes. If you want it for deodorizing, do as I do and take some of the sample perfume sprays that are given away at the cosmetic counter.

Are you talking about aerosol spray or pump spray?

We usually buy a country's brand of spray after we arrive.

I think sprays are allowed, but it may depend on the country/airport.

I would try. If not allowed, they will take it away, that's all.

Thanks guys.

it's a tiny aerosol can, "Fresh Linen" scent, picked one up at walmart, thought it might be handy in any iffy public washrooms

I'll give a go, see what happens.

On a trip from USA to London I brought an aerosol can of Pam cooking spray (they don't sell it here and I really like it - I live in London now). Anyway - not only did they take the spray, but they totally unpacked the entire suitcase which I had lots of food items and liquids that were individually wrapped in ziplock bags. Took everything out of the ziplocks opened boxes, etc. I have never had that happen before, even in bags that are opened. Later I got a letter in the mail and it seems that I am on some sort of list for travelling with banned substances (the aerosol can). I wouldn't get my hopes up that you are going to go through with the can. . .

Where2, was your cooking spray 3 oz or less as they allow now?

Is it flammable or nonflammable? I've taken a small can of nonflammable aerosol in a ziploc bag through US and EU security. I don't believe it would be allowed if flammable.

If you're going to find a can or bottle or whatever of something small, you will probably find it at

Check it out as they have pretty good selection.

You could also transfer the Lysol to a small pump spray bottle. But, the wipes seem more convenient.

Hi AL,

The TSA site says:

"Aerosol spray bottles and cans - Yes - 3 oz. or smaller container"

Wel, I'm over in England now, and I had no problem with the Lysol spray. Security was actually very quick and easy at Pearson (Toronto), as was immigration at Heathrow.
