What this means for packing

Pack for the 100 ml limit

Clear resealable liquids bag — find on Amazon

Reuse one you own first. Check the bag capacity and closure required by each airport; a toiletry pouch is not automatically accepted.

Product listings do not determine airport policy. Check the exact size and variant before buying; a ‘TSA-approved’ label is not a guarantee of acceptance on your route.
