About bringing lots of whey protein boxes in check luggage through airline?
I'm gonna take an international flight from Canada to my asian country.
I see whey protein powder boxes are on sales cause of black friday so I want to buy more. But I'm worry about whether I can all boxes in my checked luggage(not carry on)? Am I allowed to do that?
And will the protein powder be metled during the flight?
It would be cheaper to send the boxes by UPS, Fedex or another overseas carrier. They will also know the rule for importing these item into your country of origin.
Ship it
There's no issue putting them in your Checked Bag(s), but you have to watch the weight or you could end up paying a few hundred dollars in overweight fees.
Your bigger issue is your "Asian" country you failed to mention. Many countries have regulations or outright ban the importation of protein powders. If you try to import it and it is not allowed you could end up being arrested and charged with smuggling. You would be much better off sending it by another method such as UPS, FedEx or DHL.
Why not ship it as it'll be easier for customs to sieze and destroy it, and you probably won't get a jail term!
I wouldn't worry about the temperature, the cargo holds stay pretty cold. Just a matter of how many packages you want to transport most airlines when they do flights from north america to asia allow 3 checked bags and then charge from there
Can you take it on the plane? YES
In almost all situations it will arrive in a NORMAL condition.
You declare it at your destination country Customs. They will decide if there's an import fee or if the item may be imported.
The placing in your luggage is just an Airplane issue. THEY ARE NOT YOUR DESTINATION COUNTRY Customs service.
Be aware this item is HEAVY watch your weight or you will be charged for overweight luggage.
This item is allowed in your luggage. It is a good idea to place each container in its own plastic bag in case it opens or breaks during the flight. You do not want to arrive with powder all over your stuff.
- Flying from the UK with Easyjet - will I need to visit the check-in desk if I already have printed off boarding passes & only hand luggage? I'm flying abroad later in March (from Manchester), just for 3 days, so I only need to pack a small carry on/hand luggage. We've been sent our boarding passes already and we can check in from tomorrow (28th), but I've never been through the airport without calling at the check-in desk first. What do I do? Go straight to security? I'm not sure. Any help and directions would be ideal!
- Bringing my juul on a plane? So I'm going to Mexico for 3 weeks tomorrow and I'm flying from The airport in TJ to another part of Mexico. I just bought a fresh pack of pods and was wondering if I leave them in the packaging untouched, or do I have to take them out individually and put them in my quart sized liquid bag? Please let me know.
- If companies stopped making supersonic planes like the concorde because it was too noisy expensive why are they bringing them back? Companies like nasa lockheed martin are working on supersonic air travel And colorado company boom is developing a 55 seater plane So if companies are working on supersonic travel does that mean airlines will have to cancel their boeing 787 dreamliner or airbus A350 orders or any widebody orders due to supersonic travel
- Bringing a CPAP machine through security at Frankfurt Airport? My wife and I are going to Germany later this year. She has to use a CPAP machine. We've never had any trouble flying domestically with it here in the US Is there anything special to do with it when going through security in Frankfurt for our flight back to the US or should it be as easy as it is here in the States? We're on Delta Airlines, if that matters at all.
