TSA Says "I Do" to The Edge
I went to Washington D.C recently, and before I left for the flight I checked the TSA website to find out the latest Do's and Don'ts.
Do
> bring three-ounce containers only
> Use a quart-size and zip-top bag
> Declare medications and baby items
Don't
> Bring any container larger than three ounces
> Use a one-gallon bag
> Over pack your plastic bag
And hey - what's that product placed prominently in plastic? Why it's Edge shaving gel. Wow! How did that get there? Hey - when I travel, I should really bring Edge shaving gel. Because the TSA says so.
Well, I think these types of drugstore shaving creams and gels are ok in a pinch, but for your normal daily routine you should pony up for quality. If you're looking to carry on something a little more high-end, we recommend the MenScience TSA-Compliant Shaving Kit.

New 2009 TSA Rules: You can now carry on liquids up to 3.4 oz.
It's about time! A common worldwide package size for toiletries is 100ml, which translates to 3.38 oz (NOT 3.0 oz). Finally, the TSA caught up with the rest of the world.
The official TSA web site with new 2009 3.4 oz liquid carry on rules: http://www.tsa.gov/311/index.shtm
The following TSA article clarifies that as of 2009, liquids up to 3.4 oz are allowed to be carried on all USA planes and how the TSA 3.4 oz / 3.0 oz. liquid policy confusion happened:

We manufacture a very popular men's grooming line of shaving, skin and hair products (http://www.men-uusa.com) that is 3.38 oz and we've been explaining to our customers that they can carry on these products. The TSA has not done a very good job communicating this 2009 change allowing 3.4 oz liquids in carry on luggage.
