    Question EBM on plane

    Alright so I am flying to melbourne and I need to take a frozen bag of EBM with me... My question is do virgin let you take it on the flight??

    And also the reason we are taking it is because there is a 2-3 hour drive from the airport where we are going to, so I was thinking of giving it to bub in the car as I do not want to resort to formula for this so if I have it frozen in its bag it will be thawing from the time we leave home till we get in approx 4 or so hours is this going to be ok thawing on its own in a little esky bag with ice packs??

    Yes, there is no issue with taking EBM or any other liquid for that matter (unless it is flammable!! ), on a domestic flight.

    And yes, it will be fine thawing in a cooler bag with an ice brick.

    HTH

    ETA: You also do not have to even tell them you have it, just like you wouldn't tell them you have a bottle of coke or a Big M in your bag.

    That should be fine, yeah. You could ask the ABA about how best to transport the milk if you're not sure about that part
