    Ryan...put them in a checked bag....unless the liquid rules have changed (haven't flown for a few years) you can't bring that much liquid on the plane anyways.
    I never had an issue the second & third time thru as I now store them in a double sealed plastic bag (cans)...but the first time was a definite YES!
    A Guinness beer exploded in my bag...the fabulous part of that...it soaked everything in my bag & stunk, so the customs officer had no desire to continue searching my bag. LOL

    Believe it or not, I was researching this last night. A guy said that he brought liquor through security whenever he was flying overseas. He said he put 12 finger bottles in a 1 liter zip-loc bag, and had done it multiple times. TSA had never given him any problems, and that one TSA agent was actually impressed with it. I guess you can bring as many bottles of just about anything, that isn't explosive, flammable or poisonous, on a plane as long as each bottle is less than 3.4 ounces and all the bottles fit in a liter zip-loc bag. Not sure why liquor is ok since it is somewhat flammable. You can bring more alcohol, liquid, etc. on the plane, as long as you purchase it inside the concourse, as Chickster explained above.
