I am flying and want to take bottles in my checked bag. Will they let this fly?

Yes, but you should wrap it up or buy one of the plastic "wine skins"

for the safety of your clothes etc. I don't think TSA cares. We've brought back rum from Costa Rica and St Lucia, and we just wrapped the bottles in clothes to protect them

i brought a 500 ml bottle of absinthe back on a cruise from st. maarten, through customs, on a plane from miami to NC without any issues.

although i think the limit on bringing alcohol back from a trip like that is something like 4 liters.

Haha just be careful. I had a bottle of wine shatter inside a suitcase once.

ok they had liters of all types of absolut (i know its not great) for only 9 dollars. I was going to buy 2 because they couldhave fit but then the bag was really heavy. also there was a sign that said you cannot bring any alcahol from asia to europe so i only bought one and it made it through.

i brought back two gun shaped bottled of tequila from mexico. Needless to say they tore through both boxes thinking they were guns in customs, but never said anything to me.

I wrapped mine in newspaper and clothes...seemed to get the job done.
