Can I take protein powder in hold when I fly?

easyrider · 23 Jul 2018 at 16:21

Can't seem to find it on the banned list ?

Anyone run into trouble doing it ?

Just call the airport up and ask, or message on FB

Why would you want to is the question :confused:

I took some energy powder mix on Saturday and didn't think twice. All fine.

Yes, but it must be solidly packed, in rectangular packages of clear plastic held together with black gaffa tape....

A multitude of reasons??

What a weird response

And a big label "Not Drugs".
I'm with the why bother camp though, surely you can last a day, a week or whatever either without it or with a local substitute?

Taking cheese powder on planes is obligatory.

i once took a 2kg block of cheese on hand luggage, raised a few eyebrows in security before i explained it was on offer, being from the west country they understood....

Only if you snort it off your table mid-flight whilst necking shots of chicken juice.

Yet what you did was respond...with a question.

I've taken individually packaged sachets of it in hold luggage before. Probably safer than unmarked bags of powder.

Of course you can't. They don't allow passengers into the hold on flights. You'd be best smuggling a few sachets aboard and taking it in the toilet.

Dangle some electrical wires from the bag and you should be fine.

It might depend on where you're flying too. Those crazy Australians and Kiwis have some mega strict rules about what you can and cant take into the country.

Ive seen this on Border control. It could possibly make them start looking for steriods.

Yes but you'll probbaly want a new unopened container to avoid any issues.

I've typically found it easier to just buy it at the destination if its in Europe.
