It’s actually stated on the TSA website that frozen liquids are permitted. https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/ice
Notice the footnote on every TSA webpage that their officers can always change the rules on the spot if they feel like it. So it’s always a gamble.
Pouring one out for my cordless Black and Decker electric screwdriver.
Used to travel with it because it was small and light and it worked well for racking network equipment.
It was a cheap piece of junk. But it did the job. Until one day TSA decided I couldnt bring it any more. It was under 7" but that wasn’t good enough.
Told me I could check it. It would cost more for me to check a bag than for me to replace it.
Still upset about it.
The longer they discuss the less it is allowed.
Technically it’s the only kind of correct. Technically.
Technically it’s the only kind of objective correct. Other subjective types also exist (such as morally).
Do you think they get mad if I bring plasma
I’m full of plasma, but they never stopped me from flying.
try bringing some in a bag next time, should be fun
I’ve actually done this successfully. TSA agent knocked on it, and said no problem.
If i somehow would be stopped, I’d love to argue what is liquid or not, and what could be liquid if it’s just hot enough.
That’s odd…I’ve had TSA agents recommend this to get liquids through security.
I guess he got that one employee that everyone hates for literally following every single tiny or forgotten rule no matter how stupid.
… doing so because they believe their boss would make a problem if they don’t.
you could freeze H2O2 and blow up something later.
You’re not going to blow up anything with 30 % hydrogen peroxide. It also freezes at -30 C, not gonna freeze easily or stay that way for too long.
But where would someone get the H2O2?
I brought frozen fish with ice packs through TSA. The TSA guy was a fisherman and wanted to talk about fishing.
Dear TSA,
The human body is mostly water. And it’s way more than 3 oz.
TSA vs Karen, quite a match
Recently, I’m flying quite a lot, so I must try it, just to see if it works.
I’ve done it before, it does. Though you could get an employee who doesn’t know this, or won’t accept it anyway.
Last two times I flew I brought a metal water bottle (Hydroflask knockoff) filled with ice cubes. Went through fine. Then I added water at a fountain after security and during the flight I got to have that ice-cold water experience I crave.
On my last trip I had a full water bottle with me and the lady said I had to throw it away, so I looked her dead in the eye while I chugged the entire bottle and stuffed the bottle in my bag.
Fuckin tell me I can’t bring the water through again.
Huh, I’d have to fly from an airport with outdated scanners LIKE A PEASANT. The ones near me all let you keep your water and leave the laptop in the bag.

Came across this video where they were able to take ice through TSA. Your mileage may vary, follow at your own risk.
So how about a bottle of dry ice?
It’s worked for me
Lemme Google the freezing temp of whatever explodey juice they think we all have.
