The days leading up to a getaway are some of the most stressful. Prepping for a vacation and packing for a getaway can be incredibly hectic. Especially when it comes to packing your travel toiletry bag and liquids for your carry-on bag. Keep these tips in mind when packing your clear bag for the TSA 311 rule. Post updated 6/10/21. The days leading up to a getaway are always exciting but can also be some of the most stressful, given all the planning and last minute packing. When traveling with liquids and cosmetics in your carry-on, keep these tips in mind when packing your clear bag for the TSA 311 rule. No one wants to be caught away from home without their favorite cosmetics and beauty must-haves. Worse yet, no one wants to have to toss expensive body care items at the security checkpoint when they don’t conform to the TSA 311 liquids rule.

What is the TSA 311 Rule?

The TSA 311 rule is when the TSA limits the liquids (and amounts of liquids) that can be carried onto airplanes. Current TSA regulations allow liquids, aerosols, gels, creams and pastes that are under 3.4 oz. and 100 ml to be carried through TSA security checkpoints. These items must be packed in 1 quart-sized, zip-top bag and each passenger is limited to 1 bag.

TSA Approved Quart Size Bags

TSA defines the 311 bag size as 1 quart but does not give explicit dimensions. TSA 311 bag dimensions are normally around 6 by 9 inches and all Truffle bags and pouches are TSA approved.
